It seems that setting a web browser in System Settings - Default Applications - Web browser makes KDE to open XML-based files in browser, even if there's another application associated with that file type. Dolphin, kde-open or xdg-open are affected by this bug. Surprising Konqueror isn't affected by this issue.
Reproducible: Didn't try
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open System Settings, go to Default Applications -> Web browser, check "in the following browser:" radio button and fill the entry with a browser name.
2. Try to open with Dolphin a XML-based file (I tried with a .cbp CodeBlocks project). The web browser will be launched and will probably offer you to "download" that file. The same thing is happening if you run kde-open /path/to/file or xdg-open /path/to/file.
Actual Results:
The file is opened in webbrowser
Expected Results:
The file should be opened with the application defined in File Associations.
