> A file manager has a menu bar, however, so the context menu is never the only means to execute an action. Dolphin does not by default. I don't see an "Open" or "Open With" action anywhere in its menus, neither the file actions (compress, activities, send to, etc). > I don't see how turning the Open button into a split button would "terribly overload the design", either. It would not cost any additional space. And how do you think a split "Open" button (which there isn't neccessarily) would work in the following scenario?
