I got it to work! Thanks to everyone for your feedback/help. I familiarized
myself with the Lookup API and Nodes (both concepts I didn't know about).
I utilized the actionsGlobalContext() to get the global lookup, and used it to
lookup for FileObjects (doing a Lookup on Nodes didn't help for some reason).
There was always at most FileObject returned, which nicely corresponded to my
"current project" as I had defined it in my mind.
