Description Alex Graveley 2002-05-31 21:20:28 UTC 
selecting multiple files desensitizes the Open With submenu.  The proper
behavior is to find applications common to all selected files' mime-types
and show them in the Open With menu.  At the very least nautilus should
allow multiple file opening if they are all of the same mime-type.

Has it ever handled this correctly?
