Description
It would be nice to have an API to open a window in Windows Explorer or macOS Finder or GNOME Nautilus or KDE Dolphin and select a particular file or files.
Qt Creator already implements this in FileUtils::showInGraphicalShell; perhaps it could be moved upstream to QDesktopServices?
(I realize you can already use QDesktopServices::openUrl to open a folder in the desktop file manager, but then the user has to find and select the file in that folder, which can be tedious.)
