Bug Description

Observed in google chrome:

1. download a file from somewhere
2. instead of opening it with a click, do "show in folder" from the downloaded file menu

the file should be opened with the preferred file manager. My preferred file manager is nautilus, even if I'm in xubuntu

thunar, which is xfce default file manager, is used istead.

I.e.: the setting for the preferred file manager isn't used

Chrome uses xdg-open to open folders. Looks like open_xfce doesn't check user settings, but instead tries a number of different open utilities directly.
