Create file structure by including "\" in the names

Use case or problem

I want to be able to create a folder structure from a single point. For instance, Create Folder > “Folder/SubFolder/Item 001” will create a two folders and an item in the structure mentioned.

Proposed solution

Allow the "" key in the naming and use that as a trigger for creating a new item below the previously typed section.

Current workaround (optional)

Create Folder > “Folder”, Click on Folder, Create Folder > “SubFolder”, click on Subfolder, Create Item > “Item 001”

While you can’t do that when creating a folder, you can when creating a file from the quick switcher. Usually you create folders to put files into them, so this would be one less step to create the folder structure and file at once.

Don’t know if this is what you are going for, but you can create a link of

[[food/fruits/apples/Granny Smith]]

in a note, click on it, and the food/fruits/apples/ folders will be created with the Granny Smith note in the apples subfolder.
