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!
