Bug description
In v30, after loading the root file listing, custom file actions are added correctly via execution of the enabled() function, and they continue to be correct as one drills down into subdirectories, but when returning to the “All files” root view, all files/nodes at the root view have the custom actions according to the folder one just returned from.
E.g. if the root has two directories “foo” and “bar” and the custom file action “doFoo” is added to the “foo” directory and “doBar” is added to the “bar” directory, and one drills down into “bar” and then clicks “All files” in the breadcrumbs, both “foo” and “bar” have the action “doBar”.
If one reloads the view, the custom actions are fixed.
Debugging shows that enabled() is being called only for the “bar” folder but not “foo” when the root view is returned to via breadcrumbs from within the “bar” subtree.
Steps to reproduce
See description.
Expected behavior
Custom file actions are always correct, even if one uses breacrumbs to navigate.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the v30 root file listing scenario: enter a subdirectory, then return to “All files” through the breadcrumbs and compare custom actions on each root node. Done means each file and directory has the action set determined by its own location, without requiring a page reload.
