org.eclipse.ui.dialogs.SaveAsDialog provides file selection in the
workspace. Is there a similar OpenDialog? I couldn't find one.
org.eclipse.swt.widgets.FileDialog shows the whole filesystem, not the
workspace.

I could use ElementTreeSelectionDialog with WorkbenchContentProvider,
but there must be an easier way.

Thanks.

Open Resource Dialog (Ctrl+Shift+R) is what you looking for?

That route is actually pretty simple. Here is an example to give you a
head-start (note, this code is licensed under GPL 3):

Hope this helps,
Eric
