Provide an open_file_and_switch_to_window remote command

[jidanni]

If one does

$ $BROWSER file.html

most windowing systems will switch to the window showing the $BROWSER showing the file.
Alas GET http://localhost:8111/open_file?filename=... doesn't,
so one must do an additional step each time. E.g.,

$ find /tree -name \*.gpx -ok GET http://localhost:8111/open_file?filename={} \; -exec wmctrl -a 'Java OpenStreetMap Editor' \;

Therefore please add an additional open_and_jump command so the user
doesn't have to switch to the JOSM window by hand every time.

It is not the task of remote servers to control the GUI activity of user systems. JOSM Remotecontrol will only implement the minimal requirements to get the functionality done, but nothing which is on top of that.

P.S. Remote control is not meant to control a local JOSM BTW. There are other ways to do so, like Drag&Drop.
