Comment 14 for bug 366963

The 'issue' here (on maverick and probably lucid, as noted in the duped bug) has been resolved by not allowing :Remember this application for "Folder" files to be enabled when using "Open with Other Application" on dir.'s

The checkbox is enabled by default and when enabled changes the default folder handler to app chosen, in effect the same as properties -> open with.

At a min. setting this to false at least keeps the box disabled unless the user changes and results in expected behavior - the chosen app opens the dir., is added to the"Open With" menu and nautilus remains the default

gtk_toggle_button_set_active (GTK_TOGGLE_BUTTON (dialog->details->checkbox), FALSE);

A fresh ( no inode/directory= line) mimeapps.list after opening a dir. with vlc - nautilus is automatically added to front of line, any other apps used from the "Open with Other Application" dialog are added to end of line, ect.

inode/directory=nautilus-folder-handler.desktop;vlc-audio.desktop;
