Bug Description

in Nautilus 3.4, if i right-click a folder with i.e. media files, the
context menu shows the option to "open with..." or even directly shows
the correct application for the content of that folder.
Nautilus 3.6 doesn't have this option anymore.
this is a big regression and a usability issue.
