Original author: Adam Dingle
Original description:

Currently, the Show in File Manager command launches Nautilus whenever it is
present in the user's PATH. (See AppWindow.show_file_uri().) A user might have
Nautilus installed but have a different file manager configured as default.
The command should always launch the user's preferred file manager, i.e. the
one which Gtk.show_uri() would launch when passed a URL.

See #2129 for a recommendation from Federico Mena Quintero about using a DBus
interface for this (note that Shotwell was considered a canonical example
driving the need for this interface):
