Incorporate JPEG View as an alternative option vs Default Image Viewers #13368

What feature or improvement do you think would benefit Files?

Yet another :D Incorporate JPEG View as the Default Image Viewer for Files. JPEG View is a beautiful, lightweight FOSS Image Viewing App for Windows. It's less than 5MB in size, so my hopes is that incorporating it into Files as its own default Viewer is easy enough to pull off. Ideally this could be in the options as a toggle between "default image viewer / JPEG View."
It'd be a nice option for all the FOSS enthusiasts such as myself and perhaps might make loading or opening images faster?

Requirements

This proposal will incorporate JPEG View's Image Viewer natively into Files, allowing users to opt for using JPEG View to open/view images vs Windows Image Viewer by toggling the option in the settings

Files Version

2.5.21.0

Windows Version

Windows 10
