MKV files mistakenly identified as executable on network shares — at Version 5

Description (last modified by )
(please change the title accordingly, I don't know why I only noticed/checked MKV files, this applies to all files on all my NFS drives - suggested title: Files with user:group other than 1000:1000 are treated as executables ).
Tracker displays and treats files on my NFSv4 network shares as executables and I cannot select a suitable app for opening them as a consequence. When manually opening, e.g., a PDF document with BePDF, it's displayed just fine.
I get the warning message that they are wrongly marked as executable and if I wanted to fix that, but it doesn't help.
When inspecting the file information using "Get Info" and checking permissions, I see that files with user/group 1000:1000 with owner r/w/x permissions can at least be opened with the default app correctly, but they are still displayed with a generic text icon and a "Kind" attribute of "Generic file".
This behaviour is inconsistent and wrong. A PDF is a PDF no matter the permissions, so file types should be deduced accordingly (they are readable after all).
Using today's nightly hrev58442.

Owner has r/w/x. User/group 3000 set to server-managed share:share. Access works fine, just the display is wrong.

Are you sure the display is wrong? If the "x" bit is set, then Tracker's behavior is expected.

What does the permissions display show?
