xdg-open uses diffrerent app in-sandbox and outside

[Roman Evstifeev]

oh, btw the same happens when i open directory from slack - xdp does
not seem to call xdp-kde (its log is silent), and uses weird baobab
app:

XDP: Content type for file /home/u1/Downloads: inode/directory
XDP: launching org.gnome.baobab file:///home/u1/Downloads
