OOo .odt files - open with Java by default

[King InuYasha]

I have had this problem since Fedora Core 4. Ever since GCJ and OOo 2.0 were
included in Fedora, this specific issue has cropped on my computers all the
time. The strange thing is that only OpenDocument files are considered Java
Archives. None of the other archive-based formats supported by OOo have this
issue as far as I can tell.
