Bug Description

In case multiple images, say n *.jpg images, are selected in nautilus and then opened with Image-viewer:
- 16.04 opens one instance of eog to view the selected images (=Image-viewer app)
- 18.04 opens n instances of eog, one for each image. This is not correct, it should behave like in 16.04.
  I tried behavior of opening muliple files from nautilus with another app.
  In 18.04 opening multiple .avi files with the vlc app, only one vlc instance was opened (like in 16.04)
