Helix on FC isn't like that -- shift+click, ctrl+click

anything different from 'click', so I have to play a whole album at

generate it's file selector... I think it's gnome, but it's not
like any documentation exists for this stuff... But it's little
things like this that make the difference between a GUI that's
useful, and a GUI that's not.
The GTK+ file selector supports multiple selection (try gedit, say); the
application is, however, responsible for turning that on ...
it doesn't make sense in all cases.
You might want to file an upstream bug report against helix.
I personally find rhythmbox a whole lot nicer for playing local music,
but tastes vary.
