</div>Depends on what you intend to use it for. For instance in Dolphin you<br>
can drop files on an entry in the breadcrumb bar to move or copy a<br>
file to that directory. A breadcrumb bar in a file manager plasmoid<br>
could use it for a similar purpose. If there is any case where you<br>
need to move things around within the tree structure you are using the<br>
breadcrumb bar to navigate then this will be very helpful.<br>

</div>Depends on what it is being used for. For instance in dolphin it open<br>
the folder in a new tab. If there are either tabs in the plasmoid or<br>
the nodes of the breadcrumb tree can be opened in an external<br>
application, then middle click would be helpful for those purposes.<br>
It could also be used to trigger a popup, for instance showing a<br>
preview of the contents of that node without moving to it.<br>

</div>Scrolling on an entry would move up or down in the entries list at that \
level.<br> <br>
So for example if you have a tree structure like this:<br>
<br>
a - a1 - a11<br>
- a2 - a21<br>
- a3 - a31<br>
<br>
And you are currently seeing:<br>
<br>
a - a2 - a21<br>
<br>
Scrolling down on a2 would take you to:<br>
<br>
a - a3<br>
<br>
This is how it works in Dolphin, at least.<br>
<br>
It allows you to easily move through adjacent folders at the same<br>
level without needing to open the list. It is very useful if you want<br>
to do something in adjacent folder \
sequentially.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Neat, will add that in! I never \
