If operating system (Ubuntu 14.04 LTS in this case) saves user's associations at ~/.config/mimeapps.list and xdg-mime works with this (reads & writes there), then it's not a problem. It can be an OS distribution feature.
It's not xdg-mime that must follow GLib/Gnome behaviour: it should be Gnome that works consistently following same rules as xdg-mime. My problem in this list thread is that I check associations with xdg-mime (Nautilus is consistent to xdg-mime when opens files), but gnome-control-center doesn't work completely with Freedesktop rules but the real problem for me: doesn't have documented its own rules.
