NSOpenPanel (and Finder and Nav Serv) previews, adding support for my own file types?

Hi,

NSOpenPanel, the Finder, and Navigation Services all show previews for
files, at least when in column view.  This works especially well for images.

Is it possible to write some kind of plugin so that the OS can also show
a preview for my custom image format?

From what I can tell, only Nav Serv supports this:

ProvidingNavigationDialogs/nsx_tasks/chapter_3_section_6.html>

Is it possible for NSOpenPanel and the Finder too?

Thanks!
