Currently we expose the "down arrow" or export zip action for folders. I think we should instead put the "X" delete action as its more typical and also consistent with regular files.

We definitely need to revisit the menus and groupings.  I specifically took delete out of the column and put it in the menu because I didn't want to make it too visible/easy.  

The "X" shows up for files because the code will check for single-item menus and expose the item directly if it's the only thing in the menu.

I agree we need some consistency here....

I still believe that delete shouldn't be too easy to find.

The "X" no longer shows up for files because we finally have more than one thing in the menu.  So the consistency problem is no longer there.

I moved the "down arrow" (which is now export to zip...) to the menu.

So now we have "make favorite" and "rename" exposed for folders and files, and everything else is in the menu.  I think we are good.

This was released in the icon pass.
