I managed to do this now, with the following code:

SystemRemoteFileDialog dialog = new SystemRemoteFileDialog(SystemBasePlugin.getActiveWorkbenchShell());
dialog.open();
Object o = dialog.getSelectedObject();
if (o instanceof IRemoteFile) {
    IRemoteFile file = (IRemoteFile)
    System.out.println("Selected file's abs path: " + file.getAbsolutePath());
} else {
    System.out.println("No valid file selected!");
}

But, I still wonder how I can programmatically show only the files for a 
specific remote connection (hiding the drop-down menu to choose 
connection, at the top of the dialog)?

Also, I'd like the file tree to show by default only the files under a 
specific directory (Same as manually right-clicking a folder in the main 
RSE view and selecting "Go Into", but programmatically). Any hints how 
this could be done?

Big thanks in advance,
// Samuel
