Comment (by pulkomandy):
There is a trap here: when you select "open with", you are always opening
a single application. When you use cmd+O, there may be different apps to
open for each file. So, Tracker should:
* Get the preferred app for each file
* Group the files by preferred app
* Open each app once and send the group of files to it in one go
So if you select a mix of pictures and videos (typical set of files from a
digital camera), you'd get both ShowImage and MediaPlayer open, and the
slideshow and video playlist starting to run at the same time. Better than
opening a hundred windows, but still not perfect.
