Title:
  OpenWith/OtherApp does not 'remember' the selected app

Status in Nautilus:
  Expired
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus

  When selecting a file of some type or a directory, the Open With menu
  shows a list of apps and the option to Open Other Applications that
  gives a dialog listing all the apps (some several times) with a
  checkbox to 'Remember this application' -- so far as I can tell, it
  never remembers; I have been using VLC to open video files for as long
  as I can remember, and VLC still is not in the list, and I have never
  selected gmplayer to open video files, yet it is in that list.  Also,
  in opening a directory I frequently use VLC to open DVD image
  directories, yet here again VLC has never migrated into that select
  box.

  Can the select list be edited or reset to reflect the choices I
  actually use?

  I am currently using Ubuntu 10.10, but so far as I recall this
  behaviour has been in Nautilus since the beginning.
