Having to configure folders for this simple operation is a bit overkill IMO.
Furthermore, if not configured that way, should the "Select All" + "Delete"
combination still empty the folder or not? :-)

Reusing the "Empty trash..." context menu item and naming it "Empty folder..."
when it's not a Trash folder is more straighforward and probably easier to
implement.
