I had an ok week. There's a mix of small improvements, and some neat OS integration.

highlights
Thanks to a user, we have some cool new OS integration this week. For Windows, you can now go open->in another program on a thumbnail to get the Windows open with dialog, and open->properties to get the normal Windows file properties window. Also, the various places that can view a file in your OS file explorer now work better, and are better about selecting the file(s). Users who runs from source will want to rebuild their venvs this week to get this new stuff.
When you have a single 'edit time' panel, like the sub-panels for modified and archived time in the 'manage times' dialog, now accept any date string for the paste button. So, you can now paste something from your web browser or just 'yesterday' or something, and it should all work. This uses the same date parsing tech we have had success with elsewhere.
I broke the 'media' help page into two and added some new checkboxes to set whether to duplicate the text of the different hover windows in the background of the media viewer. If you want a clean background, it is now easy, under the new 'media viewer' page.
I fixed some more URL encoding stuff, this time related to brackets in parameter names, and buffed the 'clear orphan tables' database routine. If I have been working with you on either of these, please try your thing again and let me know how it goes.
next week
This is the last work week before my vacation, so I'll just do some simple cleanup work again.
