--- Comment #7 from Mike <[email protected]> ---
This is one of those cool features I remember using many, many moons ago on
Windows, I'm pretty sure.  Seems like it was related to all that OLE stuff,
IIRC.  Anyway, printing documents can be thought of as a "rendering" operation.
 So there's a file type or I guess mimetype that is "rendered" to/for the
printing device (or file) by, well, an app.

If an app supports a cli (or dbus) option to print a file, then it might be as
simple as looking for the file association and call that app with the
appropriate print command and the file, of course, for each file selected from
the list (dolphin, etc.).  If there was a standard for "open this file but stay
invisible and then print the file and go away" that apps implemented, it could
be a dolphin plugin of some sort, I would think.
