[dolphin] [Bug 418537] If folder is already open, and "open new folders in tabs" is disabled, "Open containing folder" feature should focus current instance of Dolphin instead of opening a new one

I think that open another instance of Dolphin to show an already open folder is
unnecessary.

Nautilus on Gnome only opens another instance if currently it is showing a
folder different than the one opened by "Open containing folder" feature of
Firefox, for example.
If the containing folder is already open, current instance of nautilus tries to
steal focus and Gnome Shell shows "Folder is ready" notification. If I click on
such notification, current instance of nautilus is focused. Nautilus does not
open another instance if the containing folder is already open and I consider
this to be the expected behavior.

Maybe we can set this report to "wishlist".
