Public bug reported:
In Ubuntu 12.04, I could right-click on a folder in Nautilus, and its
context-menu provided an "Open With" option that was especially
convenient for queuing up a folder of media file into a variety of media
players (like VLC for example).
In Ubuntu 13.04, this option is missing and therefore requires
additional steps to achieve the same result:
(1) Launch media player
(2) Position Player beside Nautilus
(3) Drag and drop folder into media player.
This regression has removed a previously handy feature. It was a lot
easier to just right-click the folder and "open with" the media player
of my choosing. That "Open With" menu item would also remember every
application I've ever opened a folder with, and it would list those
previously-used-applications for an even quicker selection process. We
need to bring this back!
