Could the data viewer show the content of an RDS file when one is selected in the file explorer?

Clicking on a CSV file in the file explorer directly opens it in the viewer:

Screencast.from.2026-07-20.11-14-56.webm

This is also the case for some formats that are not plain text files, e.g. parquet. However, clicking on a rds file just gives the opportunity to load this file in the session:

Screencast.from.2026-07-20.11-17-32.webm

I think the data viewer uses DuckDB or Polars and none of those support the RDS format, but could another tool be used internally in this case?

Thank you @etiennebacher, I like your idea! I've filed it as a feature request over here #14992.
