Changing the default application associated with application/xml to Kate?

Hi there,

I'm not sure if this should actually be taken to kde-devel; if so,
please tell me.

Bug 201162 (https://bugs.kde.org/201162) isn't actually a bug - the
default application associated with XML files is Konqueror, but when
the XML file isn't styled it just renders a blank page, confusing the
users.

My doubt here is whether Kate shouldn't become the default application
associated with this mimetype: if it's an unstyled XML file, the
user's likely to want to view the "raw" file contents.

Cheers.
