At the time I was quite pleased with its inclusion but there was always a annoying snag to it, something which is an inhereted feature from the API: if no selection if made, then the last file URI added to the list is always returned. This is not really a sign of anything lacking in the GTK sources, but the documentation does not suggest how to handle any need to CANCEL the menu by pressing the 'ESC' key.
