Code::Blocks needs this feature, too!
I guess we'll do the hack chromium does, but it is not pretty and it is
complex.
So please add this feature.

The best option is to make it opt-in feature for filemanagers. Every
filemanager can specify somewhere (if I understand it correctly this place is
the desktop file) that it supports selecting and what is the command flag for
this.

I'm sure all filemanagers will be updated pretty fast if this goes into the
standard.
