This one, you will have to report or request to the
AbiWord/OpenOffice/GNOME developers. You can check in
${X11}/share/gnome/applications/abiword.desktop for the 'MimeType' line.
AbiWord developers chose to not put mimetype of doc in it. GNOME's
mimetype system still isn't that great if you ask me.
