Description Alex Duggan 2004-09-12 02:25:03 UTC 
Right clicking on a directory and going to the proporties page has a tab for
"Open With" which should probably be hidden for things like directories, My
computer, trash, etc.

Or the functionality could be restored altogether, as suggested by bug 151747.

Some applications have problems with this feature/bug. Specifically Mozilla
Firefox. If you click on "Show folder" in the Download preferences whatever
application that is associated with folders in the "Open with" tab gets started
instead of Nautilus.

If this functionality gets restored, this needs be worked out somehow.

I also tried filing this against Mozilla Firefox.
