Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

By default there is no inode/directory= in
~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list

After a r. click -> "open with other application" and picking an app the line 
is created with that app as first listed, which is proper behavior.
What's not proper is that app becomes the default for opening 'Places and 
anything accessed thru Places', though not for dir.'s on the desktop.

Ex. this line will open Places and therein with vlc
inode/directory=vlc.desktop;

Proper behaviour is restored when opening a folder thru the  r. click ->
"open with other application" and picking "Open folder"  which creates (
or simply editing it so

inode/directory=nautilus-folder-handler.desktop;vlc.desktop;

Any add. 'open with's , add  the .desktop to front of line and that app
becomes the default, ect.

Previously the first listed on inode/directory= was not the default - it
remained nautilus-folder-handler whether listed or not
