Associate Default Applications with the Workset

Include the ability to assign application associations per workset, so that files cannot be opened in the wrong version of an application. Each workset at a site can use various application versions. With multiple versions of applications installed, the only way to open a file with the correct application version is to use "open with." This leaves a lot of room for user error. Opening a file in the wrong version of an application can cause data loss. Even with the pop-up warning, it does not prevent users from opening a file in the wrong version.

    I request taking it a step further, and also include the ability to assign application associations directly to a file.
