Bug Description

I'd like a preference that would automatically unpack downloaded archives. Typically, this is what we're going to go do with the archive anyways.

It is possible to automatically open files when they are downloaded. For archives, that would open them in the archive manager, from where you can extract them.

Or do you want Steadyflow to be able to automatically extract them without even prompting?

I was going for automatic extraction without a prompt and without always opening other types of files.

The archive mounter provides this feature already. It's by default in Ubuntu and Fedora. So for what I want, "works for me".
