Currently I load a group called "main" if nothing else is specified on
command line. A dialog would be overkill in my eyes.

Maybe I'll write a edje_player_gui that wraps edje_player with a ETK or
EWL GUI that:

1) shows a group selector if "main" group isn't found
2) shows a file selector if invoked without edj file

I don't think this should be done in the main player application.
