Nautilus anti-hax0r detection bug



Hello everyone.

I brought the issue up today with Sebastien that I'd like for him to
disable Nautilus's filetype matchup code (the one that displays the
annoying and occasionally comical dialog box when the extension doesn't
match the detected mime type).

He's not comfortable reversing upstream decision so close to release so
he encouraged me to bring the issue up on this list.  The GNOME bug has
received zero attention since I reopened it just after the 2.12.0
release failed to address the issue.

(( http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=309862 ))

Further up in the bug report Nicholas Miell comments "Current solution
is just unpleasant without actually doing anything." and "You should
probably disable the feature entirely until it's actually useful."

This problem bites users an awful lot in legitimate normal use-cases
with a scary warning.  Unless anyone knows a good reason otherwise, can
we please get rid of this hack until it actually works?

Cheers
