Logic of the mime type handler dialog isn't very good:
* Doesn't handle the case in which we could not find a mime type handler at

* Doesn't handle unknown mime types

- Currently, the window text is, "nautilus requires to install software to
- open files of the following file type: "

- I propose that we change the wording to
-
- (1) Nautilus needs to install additional software to open this type of file:
- (2) Nautilus requires installing additional software to open these files:
- (3) Nautilus requires installing additional software to open files of the
following type:
-
- or something similar.

- I have attached a screenshot
+ <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwarePackageOperations#searching>: "When
+ asked to find an application to open an invalid filetype (e.g.
+ “unknown”), SessionInstaller should present an error alert, with primary
+ text ‘Ubuntu can’t search for applications to open “{filename}”, because
+ the file type is not recognized.’, and secondary text “File type: {file
+ type}”."
