Actually I was confused by Nautilus-Actions Configuration Tool that supports this case. E.g. create action with Command zenity and the following parameters: --list --text="Nautilus-Actions parameters for the selected items:" --column="Parameter" --column="Token" --column="Value" "space-separated list of filenames" %%F "%F" In Nautilus apply this action to the multiple files and you will see the list of space-delimited file paths in the second column. But Nautilus actions are not the same as Desktop Entries so nothing's wrong here.
