don't activate window when open from file

I think an option to prevent the main window from coming up when opening from a file even if it is minimized or not running would be nice.

I think this will be a useful feature because I often find myself clicking through many music files in explorer to get a quick idea of which song or sound effect it is, and it can be a hassle having to minimize foobar each time. Thanks. =)

This option exists already:
