I use openwith (http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/OpenWith), which works with dired.  Maybe it's not quite what you're looking for, but it can certainly open more than one file with an external application.  The version in the wiki causes the external programs to close when Emacs closes, because they're subprocesses of Emacs.  I've modified it to disown the processes so they stay up even after Emacs closes.  I just submitted a patch; you can get my version here: http://pastebin.com/F5kxd6sm.
