Feature request: I'd like to be able to run ``geany --list-open-files`` and have it simply spit out a list of the files it currently has open to stdout (with full path information). Similar to how --ft-names works.
What would you use that for? (Session support will be improved in future - for projects and maybe custom session files).
Some users had expressed interest in a hierarchical file browser (for files that Geany already has open). I was fiddling around and wrote a small Tkinter utility that would show what files Geany has open, sorted by full path name so as to list files together that are in the same directory, and which provides hot keys to open them (under the covers it just calls ``geany <file>`` and Geany goes to that file since it's already open).
Is this really the way we want to go? Sounds very cumbersomely. We could add it temporarily as some kind of workaround but for the future I think this should do a real file browser plugin.
