At this point you can either drag and drop files into the empty window,
or you can click on the plus sign to add files and select them from a
file chooser. If you need to see hidden files, right click in the file
chooser and select "Show Hidden Files". Each time you drag more files
(or select more files) they will be added to the archive. You can keep
doing either or both until all the files you want archived have been
added, then just close the archive manager.

It's not quite as bad as that - in fact the archive manager itself is
essentially unchanged.
