Well, a quick hack that works for me is in the attached patches to CDialog.cpp
files in gb.qt and gb.qt.kde that allow to select multiple files.

The new method Dialog.OpenFiles behaves like its brother Dialog.OpenFile (that
is it returns true if no files have been selected and vice versa) but, after
calling OpenFiles, Dialog.Path contains a string containing all the files
chosen, separated by spaces.

You can then easily split the string to get an array of the files you selected.

Ciao,
Piero
