read AND write also for RAr files
Today there is support for read/write only for zip and cab files.
RAR is a widely used format but yet there is no support for write option ( you can't double click a RAR files in one pane and than perform a copy command from the other pane - directly into the RAR file).
There is also no support for RAR in the "pack" option (only ZIP and CAB).

7-Zip support
I agree that a full support of 7-Zip format (open source software) in FreeCommander is desirable.

Operating inside archives and custom extension archives
I can see that for archives you resolve their type by extension. It would be nice to have a possibility to open files without proper extension - just recognize the type of file by its meta information.
A good example are .war and .ear files (zip archives).
Also a nice feature is to operate inside of the files - go inside, edit file, get out = automatic repack.
You've probably seen it in the "similar" product

Re: Operating inside archives and custom extension archives
Do you tried the option "Treat the following archive files as a ZIP:" in Settings > Archive file?useresu wrote:I can see that for archives you resolve their type by extension.

One thing that works well for me is to use WinRAR and the context menu. I select items, right-click, choose "Add to archive..." or the "Add to <filename>" where the filename is auto-generated. It works quite well.
Does 7z offer integration with context menus? If so, that may be a good we to do it also.
