Technically this is not a regression, since we never properly handled this at
filter type detection level.  The fact that it seems to have worked in 3.4.x is
purely due to nothing but luck.  E.g. this never worked for me even in 3.3 or
3.4.

Internally, the algorithm that picks the app to open has no idea from which app
the user is opening a given file.  In HTML's case, candidates are writer/web or
calc.  Which ever app happens to be stored first in boost::unordered_map gets
picked.  And since the container doesn't guarantee the order, which app gets
picked when there are multiple candidate apps is anyone's guess.

The current workaround is to select "HTML Document (OpenOffice.org Calc)" or
"Web Page Query (OpenOffice.org Calc)" (hmm OOo is still used there...) as the
file type when opening the HTML file from File - Open.  Or, do as Pedro
suggested.   Yes, this is a UI bug and we need to fix this some day, but it's
not a regression.

Removing the regression keyword.
