How do you mean by random? Maybe it needs to be clean up? Try to use  
gnome-menu-editor to see if it will making anything difference.

Yeah, you can click right on any file in nautilus. Like if you want *.png  
to be open by gview or gthumb, then right click on one of .png file and  
click on properties, then you will see 'Open With' tab in there.

PDF plugins? or just to get browser to download and run PDF viewer by  
automatic (not open inside browser)? If you are using Firefox, Mozilla or  
different browsers other than Epiphany, then you will have to teach them  
on your own in the mimetype option. As for Epiphany, it will download PDF  
file and run Evince by automatic to open PDF file by default.

nautilus-cd-burner, right? I will have to check and I haven't touch  
nautilus-cd-burner for pretty very long time.
