Perhaps it would be more intuitive to label that menu "Folder". I know the HIG generally recommends to have a "File" menu, but IIRC we came to the same conclusion when discussing the presence of a "CD" Menu in CD-Related applications, so this would follow the line. It's also more logical.
Excuse me gents, probably I am missing something, but... why are you all talking about modifying the menu? The actions in the "edit" menu act on the SELECTED files. So all we need is a way to allow the user to SELECT the container, in addition to the content. Then the current menu would work unmodified.
Currently you can only select the content and not the container. That is the problem.
My two pence,
