Thank you for your prompt answer.
Agreed, although Baobab is the only application that exhibits this
behaviour so far and I did not even try consciously to change the
default.
By the way, the command "gio open /tmp" launches Thunar, not Kaffeine.

~/.config/${XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP}-mimeapps.list does not exist.
($XDG_CONFIG_HOME is not set)

You can find attached a copy of it. For the inode/* MIME type it only
has a reference to Thunar:
$ grep -i inode ~/.config/mimeapps.list
inode/symlink=Thunar-folder-handler.desktop

It only exists /usr/share/applications/gnome-mimeapps.list. You can
find attached a copy of it.
For the inode/directory MIME type it only has a reference to Nautilus:
$ grep -i inode /usr/share/applications/gnome-mimeapps.list
inode/directory=org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop
