I have found a workaround for my specific problem:

gksu gedit ~/.local/share/applications/defaults.list
Add line:
application/msword=wine-extension-doc.desktop
Under [Default Applications](previously empty)
Followed by(in terminal):
update-desktop-database ~/.local/share/applications

But shouldn't this(or something equivalent) be done by Ubuntu once I select it as my default application to open .doc files in nautilus?
