The "Open with:" dialog appears when clicking "open with <application_name>",
in the open file dialog box, the one that appears when you click a link to a
file. you then have to manually enter <application_name>, or search in the
known applications tree for it.

This happens in two places in the open file dialog box:
1) In the button for the default app (labeled "Open with <application_name>")
2) In every entry in the menu that pops up when you click the
"<file_in_folder_icon> Open with <down_arrow>" button (this should happen only
for the last entry, labled "Open with...")

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Find a link to a file of a type that doesn't have a kpart preview to it, but
has one or more known programs that open it.
2.Click said link.
3.Click any Open with button or menu entry that doesn't end with "..."
Actual Results:  
The "Open with:" dialog appears where you have to manually enter
<application_name>, or search in the known applications tree for it.

Expected Results:  
Open the file imidiatly with the selected program

Dates back to KDE 4.8.x ond possibly earlyer.
