This bug is really annoying for KDE users. Most fix it by making a link called "nautilus" linking "konqueror". But that's an ugly hack. Why not just use xdg-open (if it exits)? This will open the right app for the currently running desktop environment. There is no reason at all why this xdg-open should not be used under *nix. I for myself did an even uglier hack to tell Firefox to use Konqueror, see: http://twoday.tuwien.ac.at/pub/stories/316660/
Just running xdg-open file:///path/to/the/dir/ should do the whole trick. No special support for any DE needed.
