I don't see the benefit of duplicating the logic which is in the xdg-open
script ( http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xdg/xdg-utils/tree/scripts/xdg-open.in )
inside wine. xdg-open was first introduced in 2006 and became part of most
Linux distributions around 2008. All mainstream Linux distributions should have
it installed by default these days. The question here is whether we want
provide support for native file associations integration for Linux
distributions from before 2008 (and thus also obsolete environments like KDE3)
