It works the same way as in MM4, INS does not add path from selected track(s) to Scan dialog in "ordinary" track lists or playing list. I think current behavior - i.e. load previous scan settings - is correct. Only in Folders node I would expect adding this folder to scan dialog.

i) I agree with @michal , but user in remote session pointed me to behavior that is logical and not possible thus this bug is created.

Steps:
1. Double click on track in Windows explorer -> MM play track
2. Select Track -> INS to scan rest of files in MM library
3. No tracks added as folder outside normal scan scope

ii) I would change that behavior only for Now Playing/Playing and for all other views I would introduce SHIFT+INS which is also common shortcut to execute Folder Behavior where Folder Behavior woudl execute same action on both INS and SHIFT+INS

So this is actually a feature request and it seems like a good idea.

Currently for tracks that aren't in the Library, nodes such as Playing display a context menu 'Add to Library' to allow individual tracks to be added. But if the user wants to add all tracks from a single folder, they must first navigate to the corresponding Location/Folder node and then press INS, triggering the 'add/scan' dialog to open for the active folder, so that all tracks in that folder can be scanned.

The idea here would be to extend that usecase so that any time the user selects a track or a group of tracks that are in the same folder, all tracks from the folder can be scanned. (Peke originally thought about this for 'Now Playing', but the idea actually applies to any folder).

Any downsides that I'm overlooking? I'd expect it's simple to add.

The fix caused a regression (it's regression in SVN Trunk only -- not in 5.0.4 branch):

1) Go to Pinned node
2) Re-start MM5 so that the Pinned content is shown
3) Click menu File > Add/Rescan
=> nothing happens!

Debugging this I found that it stalls on the line 1544, see the screenshot below:

I doubt that most of the users will want to scan the selected file folder most of the time, and most of the time a file will be selected. This seems to be a change on 1 request that most other users won't need.
