If xdg went ahead with the rename, and if debian included that update, that would create a conflict on that package. I don't know what they would do, but since the command is pretty much deprecated, I can assume they would drop /bin/open from kdb and warn users. The reason it's still there is they've had no reason to drop it. This is imho a distribution problem.
