FYI, what follows is a precise description of the bug:
---
[macosx] OpenFilesHandler does not receive fileopen events
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8043852
---
Unlike other Java applications which may use deprecated yet functional
Java APIs (com.apple.eawt.Application.addApplicationListener), XMLmind
XML Editor uses the most up-to-date Java APIs
(com.apple.eawt.Application.setXXXHandler), those which are involved in
the above bug.

Again, this feature is suppored by jEdit. So it must be possible to
somehow get it to work. That being said, this featuer is not supported
by NetBeans: https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=138943
As for jEdit, then it seems at least they have had trouble with this
aspect of the app - though I do not know if it is the exact same issue:
* https://sourceforge.net/p/jedit/bugs/3453/?page=0
However the abvoe jEdit bug was closed with the following patch - I do
not know it could be of any use to you:
* https://sourceforge.net/p/jedit/patches/377/
Btw, with regard to opening files from Finder, then, first I do not know
if this helps, however, I see that Eclipse has had the same issue as
XMLmind and NetBeans currenltly have. Here is a web page that described
a solution:
