Description

If you want to open a format which is not natively supported by SCIFIO/ImageJ2, the user should receive a warning message. Currently the file is opened in a text-editor as binary.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue by opening a CZI file when CZI support is unavailable, then trace the SCIFIO/ImageJ2 file-opening path. The fix is done when unsupported formats produce a warning instead of opening binary content in a text editor; no specific file or test is named in the issue.
