Separate Directory and DirectoryBackground

This would probably work. The unit tests only failed because of an unrelated issue with desktop integration on Linux, which I've fixed in he meantime.

However, I'm not really sure if this feature will be useful. While some applications may only add Directory and not Directory\Background context menu entries, I believe this is usually just an oversight or a holdover from older Windows versions that did not support Directory\Background yet.

Is there any harm to always adding the entry to both? This would keep the feed format simpler, also avoiding the need to update to update the "capabilities" caspecification and existing feeds on apps.0install.net

I was thinking what if a program does not needs to add that context menu entry. Because in some cases those entries are not very useful, and personally i like to keep thing organised, even context menu entries. But on the other hand i am not sure if other users really care about that and it might be only me. Is there any other way that users like me can get an option to choose either one or both without changing the current implementation?

What about an extra tag in capabilities named "Exclude" or something that can be false by default and when enabled or made true, it excludes the background from directory?

Eg:

if(ExcludeBackground) {
ContextMenuTarget.Directories => new[] {RegKeyClassesDirectories},
} else {
ContextMenuTarget.Directories => new[] {RegKeyClassesDirectories, RegKeyClassesDirectories + @"\Background"},
}
