Project items with Folder item type can not have browsable properties about vsprojectsystem HOT 3 OPEN

C# folders don't have any (useful) properties -- at least by default. The only property it shows is the folder name, which you already have in other places and can rename in other places as well. So "parity" here doesn't seem like a compelling reason.

Are you adding properties in C# to the folder properties somehow and want to replicate that in CPS?

We wanted to use folder's properties for some new feature we are planning:

there is a pretty complex logic for including/excluding files to compilation, publish and more that users can control by editing project.json. We wanted to allow users manipulate via UI and it is easier to manipulate with folders instead of selecting multiple files.

However design is not complete yet, we will add more details here when we are done. For now please just keep this issue in mind, but not close yet.
