[Portland] xdg-mime bug? - no method available for quering MIME type

The command:

xdg-mime query filetype foo.zip

Fails with:

xdg-mime: no method available for quering MIME type of 'foo.zip'

I'm on XUbuntu (Xfce 4) using xdg-mime 1.0.1.  Debugging the script I find
that $DE is correctly detected as "xfce".  The problem seems to be that
there is no case statement for xfce - only kde, gnome, and generic.

Looks like there needs to be some logic to, at the very least, route xfce to
the "generic" case.

Shall I file a bug?
