[Feature Request]: Open File dialog: browse inside archives #7585

Description

@mattcasters

What would you like to happen?

We should be able to browse inside file formats supported by Apache Commons VFS, like zip, jar, tar, tgz, etc.

If you select a file /home/matt/Downlods/archive.zip you can do it manually by adding zip: at the front and !/ at the end:

zip:/home/matt/Downlods/archive.zip!/

Add a simple toolbar button above the file listing :

  • Tooltip"Drill into"
  • Icon: ui/imags/zipfile.svg
  • Enabled for archives
  • see zip/jar/tar )

When clicked prepend zip/jar/tar: and !/ at the end and open the URI.
