Issue Details

• Electron Version: v9.0.4
• Operating System: mac OS 10.14.6
• Last Known Working Electron version:: 2.0.2

Expected Behavior

Document packages should be selectable in an <input type="file">. (As they are in Firefox, Safari and Chrome.)

Actual Behavior

Packages cannot be selected in an <input type="file">.

Additional Information

This is the exact opposite of #13219. Sometimes you do want the user to be able to choose a package file - not for apps, perhaps, but certainly for .pkg, old-style or large .pages, .keynote and .numbers files, or in the case I'm working with, .ufo font source files. Currently, if I have <input type="file" accept=".ufo"/>, I can't select the package itself because the dialog opens it as a directory and shows the contained files, and if I have <input type="file" accept=".ufo" directory/>, I can't select the package itself because the dialog treats it as a file and not a directory! 🤷

#13220, which addressed #13219, decided to "patch out the broken behavior and look into getting the optimum behavior later". But I don't think it was ever looked into.
