[Bug 442741] [NEW] *.doc mimetype listed in kde.xml messes up filetype handling

Public bug reported:

In /usr/share/mime/packages/kde.xml, the Microsoft Word *.doc format is
listed as "plain text", apparently for purposes of disambiguation.

This is not only inaccurate, but breaks common sense reasonable doctype
handling in file managers, making it impossible to have sane "open with"
configurations for both *.docs and for plain text files.
