--- Comment #7 from Gabriel Fernandes <gabrielfer...@gmail.com> ---
In dolphin we have 3 options.
1. You have a popup that asks you what you want to do (open or execute)
2. Set open as default, so always when you click an executable the file is
opened with a default application (kate, let's say)
3. Execute without asking.

Let's say you have second option set in dolphin, so one time, you clicked the
file, it just got open in the text editor, fine, secure.
If that file pops up in krunner/kickoff, it will only get executed, there's no
the same safety mechanism dolphin has (the 2 first options).
This kinda deceives you, as you don't expect the different behavior (you are
certain you won't execute any untrusted executable from dolphin because of the
safest options, but you might be tricked by the launcher to execute something
you opened once to inspect what's in there)
