Not sure I understand this fully.  Click on add and it drops down "Files" or "Folders", then once u chose one, it pops open the file chooser?

I'm not a huge fan of this option...my list of files/folders is maybe 20-30 things, so that would be tedious to do for each item.  Of course again, I may not be the standard use case.
