For opening files. It's linked through x-mga-exec for *.bundle files.

If you don't know what it is used for why are you so opposed? We have 
our own names and suffixes, so I don't why you are against. For exactly 
the same reason we dropped X-Mandriva-* in favor of X-Mageia in .desktop 
files.

I'm in favor of removing all unneeded parts from mgaonline. There were 
many parts related to megapacks, server editions, club membership. If 
the .bundle is unused then it too can be removed.
