Also some entries show an error message or are broken / show nothing at all (while the same entry works fine in Dolphin).

  I agree with you comments some entries in the place model does not make sense for some app.
  
  What I suggest is create a new function in the model that could filter the entries based on the context of the app.  (Docs, Video, Music, Picture) and you can set a flag with any combination of this value.
