plugins-workspace Open file dialog that allows selecting both files and folders

I was looking at rebuilding a macOS app I maintain using Tauri, but the app lets users select a mix of files and folders. Tauri only lets me open a file dialog that can select files or folders, but not both.

To explain what the status: upstream label means: The rust crate we use for dialogs (https://github.com/PolyMeilex/rfd) does not support this yet and we didn't have the resources to create a PR ourselves so far.

Nope, no traction whatsoever in the issue linked (https://github.com/PolyMeilex/rfd/issues/131)

But can we open files OR folders in one click? (not both)

No, you have to choose before opening the dialog and the dialog itself will filter the type upfront.
