Why doesn Total Commander open all CAB file types?

There are two types of CAB files: The official CAB standard from Microsoft, which is used e.g. by Windows, and the installation files from InstallShield, which also have the extension .cab, but have nothing in common with the CAB standard. Unfortunately Total Commander cannot open those files, because their format isn’t documented.
