[Bug 256207] [NEW] some file associations cannot configured/removed, prevents grouping of file association patterns

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Binary package hint: kdebase-kde4

issue: some known file types (*.wmv) cannot be removed. this prevents
these from being grouped with other known types (*.avi, *.mpg, and *.wmv
thus cannot be changed together, since *.wmv cannot be removed and it's
configuration overrides the config added to other association types)

steps to reproduce: in KDE4 systemssettings, advanced tab, click file
associations. under the known file types, click "video" then "x-ms-wmv".
the remove icon is grayed out. click the one above this "x-ms-wv" and
now the remove icon is visible and this file association can be removed.

solution: all file association types should be removable/configurable.
if they cannot be (for some technical reason i don't know about), an
explanation should be given somewhere where it is visible in the
configuration region.

** Affects: kdebase (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
