Basically title. So I'll use the space here to praise this awesome piece of software.
This program is like really effing good. Didn't know how much I needed it in my life, but there it is. Wish there was a proper alternative for movies. Sure, there's filebot for renaming and MCM for tagging, but in terms of feature-richness and maturity it's no competition.
Anyway, yeah, I'm browsing through many folders and while ctrl-d does speed things up, I wish I could also confirm the selection via button. But alas, "select folder" ain't automatically focused.

The select folder dialogue is a standard windows dialogue ... so the behaviour should be the same in every application that calls it.

Ah, I get it now. It only doesn't work when there's a seemingly empty folder selected. Otherwise it does actually work (I always do this so subconciously^^). If there's a way to improve that, then nice. If not, eh, whatever.

The "select folder" dialogue lists only folders as objects, no files.
The "emptiness" then means: no more subfolders.
