(Such as patent-encumbered codecs). I'm treating that as non-free and possibly patented. In my head I couldn't call something "free and open source" if it's got patent concerns that stop you using it. > For example, installing a default MIME-type handler for files ending > in .repo that allows GNOME Software to be launched and prompt you to > load it if you click on such a path in a web browser.

You might as well just go to the website and download the foo-release.rpm file, which is even better as it'll install the GPG key too. It also doesn't fix the issue that when you type "steam" into gnome-software, nothing comes up. That's what we have to fix.
