It opens only directories, .desktop files and executable files. Trying to open a file, be using Enter or with double mouse click, as a text file or a video makes Nautilus window blink for a instant and nothing happens. To be able to open the files, it's needed to choose to open with another application and then choose the application. Once Nautilus is unset as the default file manager (Thunar is chosen, for example), it starts to work fine again, opening files properly. Nautilus' Debian Sid version do not have this problem.
