I upgraded to the 14.04 alpha, and this regression-bug persists; you
still cannot "Open With" on a folder in 14.04.

I've been using Ubuntu exclusively since version 7.04. Around Ubuntu
12.10 I started noticing this regression.

It is so convenient to use "Open With" on folders especially when they
contain music or videos.

I like being able to right-click on a folder and then open with VLC for
example. Without this feature, I have open VLC, and then position its
window in a manner that I can drag and drop the folder into VLC. I miss
the days when I could just right-click the folder and then > Open With >
VLC

The same is true for music folders.
1) Right-Click the folder (containing music files)
2) Select "Open With"
3) Select your music application (Audacious in my case).

Very handy! We need to bring this back for 14.04 LTS!
