basically.. in theory all the nuts and bolts are there as the launcher is e's
filemanager widget - but you have
1. no way to go to a parent dir
2. the "dir" it creates and fills with symlinks to .desktop files is managed by
the code thus you don't have a lot of choice there.

so as such - really.. you can't do it. it's a simple launcher.
