The association of ".xhtml" files with XMLmind XML Editor works fine

Indeed. And so have I.
The problem is that the ".xhtml" file clicked upon is NOT opened in
XMLmind XML Editor. (that is, XMLmind XML Editor is just started or
brought to front.)
I know, indeed.
Why? Because of this bug:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8043852
We have spent a fair amount of time trying to solve this very annoying
problem and failed to find any workaround for this Java bug. I really
don't see what I could add to that.
So, Eclipse «may use deprecated yet functional Java APIs
(com.apple.eawt.Application.addApplicationListener), [while] XMLmind XML
Editor uses the most up-to-date Java APIs“» [1] which means that
issue probably won’t be solved for quite a while.
