The explanation that is not always simple to remember is the following:
- the photo viewer preferred application set in GNOME control center is used 
right now both by nautilus to open images and by Unity 2D's dash to take the 
user to his/her photos (launching his/her photo management app)
- shotwell photo viewer automatically imports images that it opens into the 
user's photo collection therefore it cannot be set as preferred photo viewer 
application in GNOME control center; instead Eye of GNOME is set.

Re-opening.
