--------------
Description of Problem:
Process.Start File Associations are not executing under OSX.  This works under
Windows and Linux (OpenSUSE), but never executes under OSX.  No failure, no
exception, just does nothing.

--------------
Steps to reproduce the problem:
Process proc = new Process();
proc.StartInfo.FileName = "Tester.txt";
proc.StartInfo.Arguments = "";
proc.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = true;
proc.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = false;
proc.Start();

--------------
Actual Results:
Nothing happens..

--------------
Expected Results:
TextEdit is associated to Text files on my OSX box.  When I double click the
txt file it opens with no issues.

--------------
How often does this happen? 
Every time.

--------------
Additional Information:
This works great, but makes it confusing on why a text file can't be ran the
same way under OSX.

Process proc = new Process();
proc.StartInfo.FileName = "http://www.novel.com";
proc.StartInfo.Arguments = "";
proc.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = true;
proc.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = false;
proc.Start();
