AFAIK, in the DE (as GNOME, KDE or XFCE) the xdg-open try first the
DE's tools and only then uses XDG MIME, eg. in my XFCE it uses
exo-open. Then setting the MIME:

xdg-mime query default x-scheme-handler/mailto
claws-mail.desktop

grep claws-mail.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list; echo $?
1
grep mailto ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list
x-scheme-handler/mailto=exo-mail-reader.desktop

One can see, taht the results differs... It can be not useful in the
KDE. I was problem with HTML files/links (from okular), which i solved
by the keditfiletype, but when i try:

keditfiletype x-scheme-handler/mailto
keditfiletype(18084): Mimetype "x-scheme-handler/mailto" not found 

i am not KDE user and this error can be related... There must be some DE
tool to se default application in KDE for scheme handler.
