Thank you for your bug report, those applications should ship a .desktop
file to be listed. If they don't you can still create a such entry
yourself. Nautilus upstream position on the topic is that it's not the
job of the filemanager to create those entries but you could install
another software for that job. Closing that's not a nautilus bug

Title:
Can't open file with command line application
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
I want to open PDF files with xpdf, but xpdf is not listed in the list
of applications and I can't add it.
I want to open video files with mplayer but mplayer is not listed in
the list of applications and I can't add it.
I want to be able to associate file types with arbitrary commands, and
not just the ones nautilus is aware of.
I can do this in other operating systems and I could do it in previous
versions of nautilus.
