Looks mostly fine, see comments.

It might make sense to perform the same checks as `osx.c` does, that is that the project file to open is not obviously the same as the currently open one:
```C if (app->project == NULL || (g_strcmp0(utf8_path, app->project->file_name) != 0 && project_ask_close())) project_load_file_with_session(locale_path); ```

This new API should probably be used in `osx.c`'s `open_project_idle()` and in `ui_utils.c`'s `recent_project_activate_cb()`.
