Unfortunately that is not possible with imagebrowser because it sets
the listbox for single selection in the code. A patch will fix this.
Now continuing on FileDialog.. I don't have the option to change to
thumbnail view here, I guess you are using Windows, so it is not
cross-platform. imagebrowser is cross-platform because it is all done
by wxPython.
