Opening multiple files in Gnome.

[Sam Varshavchik]

In FC3, my system-install-packages.desktop file reads:

Exec=/usr/bin/system-install-packages %F

According to freedesktop docs, "%F" expands to a multiple list of filenames. 
Therefore, if multiple desktop icons are clicked and opened, Gnome should 
start a single copy of the application, and pass the list of files on the 
command lines.

Yet, in FC3, clicking on multiple RPM files, and opening them, starts 
multiple instances of system-install-packages, one instance per file.  I 
haven't upgraded to FC4 yet, but if nautilus still does this in FC4, it 
needs to be bugzillaed and fixed.
