(Yes I realise that the MIME system is being > changed, but there is something called "backwards compatibility") GNOME switched to the FreeDesktop.org MIME standard with GNOME 2.8, so this is the reason for the failure. You should just need to add the mime type declarations into your .desktop file and - if necessary - create a mime type specification for the mime type you're working on. The FDo standard should provide you with enough information.
