The FileContext should also be toggled for folders. Use it's urls() and find 
out whether a folder of file was selected. For this it would make sense to 
extend the ProjectController API though, you should add a itemsForUrl() that 
returns a QList<ProjectBaseItem*> for all projects, then go through that list 
and check whether a file or folder was selected.

Imo nothing needs (or should) be changed in the context menu extension.
