I'm actually an Xfce user, using the tracker-search-tool.  I experience
two bugs:
1. I cannot open files by double-clicking on them in the search-tool, I get:
"There is no viewer capable of displaying the document"
Gnome doesn't know which viewer to use :-(, however I'm not sure how to
fix this.

2. I cannot use the open-folder feature because I do not have nautilus
installed.  Would it be possible to use xdg-utils so that
tracker-search-tool doesn't depend on a particular file-manager?
