Even is correct.
Just for records, here is output from current KML driver for the attached sample:
- list available and recognized layers
ogrinfo -ro d:\dev\gdal\bugs\1858\Folder_Pt.kml INFO: Open of `d:\dev\gdal\bugs\1858\Folder_Pt.kml' using driver `KML' successful. 1: Folder.kml (Point)
- dump recognized layer

I'm closing this ticket as it won't be fixed.
BTW, I've taken the liberty to add Chris to CC as perhaps he things differently and he would like to find a way to handle attributes for containers somehow.

this needs to be documented as expected behavior then.. Just closing it and ignoring isn't good quality.
So, lets decide on where the thorough description of what is supported is, and then document this, and close the bug. Yes? If its a wiki style page, we dont have to do all the work in one day...

Has been documented a while ago apparently
To the extent of my knowledge, I think this bug should be closed. There is no way to fit the Folder description in the OGR SF model.
