Thanks for testing this. There is a different treatment with nativeBinary in KRun, We may want to change KRun::runUrl when a native binary is to be run but with runExecutable is false, around line 400: } else if (isNativeBinary) { // Show warning for executables that aren't scripts noRun = true; } I guess in this case with could check for mime-type associated apps like oketa can be with any binary file, perhaps adding a flag.
