Hi! There are two Show Package Contents commands, with two different behaviors. The one in the contextual menu allows you to go inside a package, and the one in the View menu allows you to treat *all* packages as folders, which makes it kind of a misnomer. Maybe something like "Show Packages as Folders" would be better?

However, as a developer I very often need to go into packages and both commands don't do it for me. I almost always use the contextual menu command, but I would like something faster. The fastest way is of course to use the command in the View menu, but when this is active, packages are not double-clikable-to-launch anymore, which renders it impracticle.

Suggestion 1:

It would be nice if the "Show Package Contents" from the contextual menu had a real equivalent in the menubar, so we could assign a shortcut to it.

Suggestion 2:

It would be nice if the current "Show Package Contents" from the View menu (which might be in need of a rename job) would allow package to still be double-clicked to launch them.
