Now I believe this problem may be related to Nautilus. Nautilus in Hardy
has known issues with "Open With...", e.g. see here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/204826

Now after following Permutation's idea above, and removing the second &
hidden Bluefish entry  under Applications > Other with the Menu Editor,
I noticed that Nautilus fortot my .php file "Open With..." association
with BlueFish. So it looks like Nautilus by default was using the second
".desktop" command line to try and open my .php file and that explains
why it failed 100% of the time, in my default and clean Hardy
installation.

After doing "Open with another application" on a .php file in Nautilus
and selecting Bluefish (and working around the Nautilus bug described
here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/204826),
now Bluefish opens my .php files properly from Nautilus.

Yes per Daniel's comment I have lost the ability to launch .bfproject
files from Nautilus with the proper CLI options, but in my case I just
don't use the project feature of Bluefish, I just sorely needed to be
able to open single files properly.

Hopefully all this can be fixed... and it really looks like a Nautilus
bug.
