nautilus doesn't honor "preferred apps" when opening links

Bug Description

I don't know if it is Nautilus which should be addressed or some other component, anyway, opening a .desktop file containing a link to a website is not done through the app I set in the "Preferred Applications" applet (in my case, epiphany). All other apps (such as evoltion, for example) seem to honor my preferences though, hence I believe the problem is not lying with "Preferred Apllications"... Regards, andre
