We can't rely on xdg-open open_generic() as it's faulty. See #1513

Expected Behavior

Open a File or URL with the user's preferred applications correctly.

Current Behavior

Faulty in some cases. See #1513.

Possible Solution

A command line tool in the spirit of gio, exo-open, etc.

[lpereira@Faisca tools]$ ./qtxdg-mat --help

QtXdg MimeApps Tool

Options:
  -h, --help     Displays this help.
  -v, --version  Displays version information.

Arguments:
  command        Command to execute.
