            Bug ID: 12493
           Summary: Usage "Open with …"  menu item in thunar unexpectedly
                    changes default application for opened file's MIME
    Classification: Xfce
           Product: Thunar

                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW

  Target Milestone: 1.8.0

For example, I prefer to open RTF-files with GNOME Office's text processor
AbiWord.
But for compatibility purposes I have to keep installed Libre Office.
After I've needed to open the exact rtf file with LibreOffice I was unpleased
finding mime association for RTF changed to LibreOffice.

I think it will be better, if open with menu itel willn't change default
application for mime (possibly making app icon in properties window read-only
indicator).
Making global mime-settings in proper DE preferencies subsection.
