I honestly think this is bad design. This is not the behaviour of any other
file managers that I've ever used, and it took me months of frustration
thinking this was a bug! Only after I read the explanation I figured I have to
set the default MIME handler by hand for most file types!

It would be less confusing if the first application the user has chosen is set
as the default, and then he can change later if wanted!
