How can I associate a file extension with an app that's not listed?
Why is it so difficult to associate file extensions with an app? Yes, I get the pop-up menu that says "Complete action using...," but the app I want to use is not listed.

Specifically I would like to use Moon+ Reader for epubs. The only choices I'm given are Aldiko, FBReader, and Overdrive. I disabled the stock reader app so it won't be used for epubs anymore. I also deleted the epub extension within Astro so that I won't get the error message "epub type not found" because I disabled the stock reader app. Now I'm prompted when I select an epub, which is what I want.
