Open unsupported files in their default application

[Snapstromegon]

Feature Request:

• VSCode Version: 1.23.1
• OS Version: Windows 10 Pro, Version 1709

TL,DR:

VS Code should open every unsupported file with the systems default application for the filetype, to enable a faster workflow with other programms.

Long Version:

I'm working a lot with designers and sometimes I have to view and edit those designfiles myself. In the current wokflow I pull the designfiles from the git and then need to open the windows explorer to finally view the file, because in Code I get an "unsupported" message.
It would really be faster, if I could just click the file in the VS Code - Explorer and it would open up in my default programm.

This Feature would prevent breaking the fast workflow and noone would see this awkward "unsupported" message.

Considerations:

This feature should be marked in the explorer with a small icon, so the user knows, that the file won't be opened in VS Code itself.
There should be an option via Keyboard-Shortcut or right-click to force the file to open with VS Code.
