SUMMARY
-------
The status description/label, which communicates whether an entry in the grid of the more basic type of application picker is the current default, renders atop the icon of the grid entry beneath it.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
------------------
1. Set a default application for the `.SVG` file type.
2. ```sh
   flatpak install 'https://dl.flathub.org/repo/appstream/org.godotengine.GodotSharp.flatpakref' && \
   flatpak update 'app/org.godotengine.GodotSharp/x86_64/stable' --commit=def1000919a3edb138b8373c6734e02b97a59bc840a1dc4fb03b93a239203def
   ```
3. Create a new project.
4. Select the default "icon.svg".
5. Invoke its context menu.
6. Select "Open in External Program".
7. Hover over the default application for that file type, or the entry beneath it.

OBSERVED RESULT
---------------
The status description/label renders atop the icon of the grid entry beneath it.

EXPECTED RESULT
---------------
The status description/label should not render atop the icon of the grid entry beneath it.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
----------------------
I'm really surprised that this lacklustre GUI still exists. The superior, listed one available via Dolphin really should be utilized as a replacement for this retrograde, gridded/iconised one. Is it accidental, or deliberately not yet remediated?

Since the other one can't hold this information due to it being a list, and a grid would take too much horizontal space (amongst alternative, obvious issues) converting it to a table would remediate all of these simultaneously.
