Ah, I missed that. So, looking at src/kits/app/Roster.cpp, I guess
we might be talking about the sequence of tests in _TranslateRef(),
with working hypothesis that the preferred app test for the node
should be first, before the execute bit test. (Preferred app for
node only - continue to fall back to general file type preferred app
after checking execute bit, as currently.)
I just mention that by way of confirmation that your observed results
match the code, and the code doesn't suggest (to me anyway) a way to
work around the problem. You ought to file a bug report, I'd say.
