  No, I don't want to add this action //right now// because I don't like the situation about actions. They are done completely non-systematically.
  
  To be honest, I don't understand logic behind Control menu too. Why I can Select All files (good), but cannot create new files or copy existing one via Control menu? Why do I need "Control menu -> Location Bar -> Replace Location" if I can just press on the Location Bar and achieve the same result? Why do we need "Editable Location" if it's the same as "Replace Location'?
  
  In my opinion, we should do it like:
  
  - Context menu. File actions on selected items. In other words, context menu is now almost perfect, except "New window" and "New tab".
  - Control menu. Controlling the Dolphin (view, panels, etc.). We need to remove file operations ("Undo", "Select All", etc.).
  - File menu. All operations. File menu = Context menu + Control menu.
  
  In terms of programming, all actions creation should be moved into one place (File menu creation). Then we just copy existing actions into Context menu and Control menu.
  
  I propose to start a new discussion, concerning this, with the Dolphin maintainers.
