Until nautilus can in some other way distinguish between which files
could want to be executed.....

surely the sane default for ubuntu to use would be to "view executable text 
files when they are opened" instead of "ask each time"
this will then be the default for all folders (even if not vfat/ntfs)

It should be the default as this is what noobish people would expect,
who are also the people likely to still be using ntfs/vfat drives and
therefore who are going to be prompted by this dialogue more. And as the
experienced users are more likely to know how to change the setting to
"ask each time" if that is what they want, and are more likely to keep
their home directory where this setting would be saved, and are more
likely to be using the terminal to execute these files anyway

lets not annoy the non-technical users
