    Is the "New Folder" menu item misplaced in NS Explorer?

    Let us use the "Indicators" folder to illustrate.

    If I want to create a new folder, I want to create it in the "Indicators" folder, but the "New Folder" item on the menu is grayed out if I click on the "Indicators" folder. On the other hand, if I click on any indicator within the folder, that option to create a "New Folder" is enabled. Well, I want to create the new folder under the "Indicators" folder, not under the individual indicator (which is logically impossible anyway).

    So here is what one sees. You click on an indicator, click on "New Folder" and a new folder appears far away from where one clicked, albeit under the "Indicators" folder. Seems hardly intuitive, and it breaks the Windows Explorer folder-creation paradigm to boot.

    In Windows Explorer, if you want to create a sub-folder, you do it by clicking on the containing folder, or empty space within the containing folder, which action does NOT select any file within the containing folder. If you select a file within the containing folder, then, in fact, the "New --> Folder" option is not even shown.
