    Instantiated once per running application, it holds a reference to every high-level object
    whose reference needs to be held: :class:`~core.results.Results`,
    :class:`~core.directories.Directories`, :mod:`core.gui` instances, etc..

    It also hosts high level methods and acts as a coordinator for all those elements. This is why
    some of its methods seem a bit shallow, like for example :meth:`mark_all` and
    :meth:`remove_duplicates`. These methos are just proxies for a method in :attr:`results`, but
    they are also followed by a notification call which is very important if we want GUI elements
    to be correctly notified of a change in the data they're presenting.

    .. attribute:: directories

        Instance of :class:`~core.directories.Directories`. It holds the current folder selection.

    .. attribute:: results

        Instance of :class:`core.results.Results`. Holds the results of the latest scan.

    .. attribute:: selected_dupes

        List of currently selected dupes from our :attr:`results`. Whenever the user changes its
        selection at the UI level, :attr:`result_table` takes care of updating this attribute, so
        you can trust that it's always up-to-date.
