Suggestions regarding the list management function of the content library

As the number of loaded content paths increases, how to manage and quickly locate the desired products has become a very troublesome issue for me. I would like to put forward a few suggestions regarding functionality, and I hope they can be taken into consideration. 


1. Improve the quick search function in the content library list based on SHIFT + the first letter. Why do we need to add SHIFT? Because many individual letters have already been set as shortcut keys for various panels, when these initial letters are clicked, various panels will repeatedly switch.
2. When the mouse hovers over a certain folder in the content library, the product preview image named "folder.jpg" in that folder will be automatically displayed, so that one can quickly know what is in this folder without having to navigate through one level after another to find out what is inside.
3. I know there is the "categories" function, but I can't guarantee that for each product loaded, a "categories" label will be assigned to it. Can we add a label to each folder that has already been assigned a "categories" label in the content library, so that I can know which folders have been classified and which ones haven't?
4. Allow using the right mouse button in the content library list to quickly set a preset color for the folder, so that users can quickly distinguish the product category of a folder based on their own preference for colors, for example, red represents characters, blue represents scenes, etc.
5. Allow using the left mouse button in the content library to drag folders for custom sorting.
6. Allow for convenient and quick import or export of the list of the content library, and also retain the order of these folders, which is very important. Sorting by the initial letter of the folders is often disastrous because the sorting based on product categories has been disrupted. It will be very difficult for me to find the product folder I need after clearing the entire content list.
7. Allow using the right mouse button in the content library to quickly lock certain folders that users particularly frequently use, so that after clearing the entire content list, these frequently used folders can be retained, and then other folders required for the next project can be loaded.d then other folders needed for the next project can be loaded.

    I just created a custom content category.  It allows me to put things where I want them, and I can put them in multiple places as well.  For instance I can put a genesis 8 female clothing item in G8F-Clothing_Dresses- Fantasy and also put the necklace in G8F-Clothing-Jewelry-Necklaces.  It takes me all of 2 seconds to add to this and about 5 seconds to find anything I want.  Great for kitbashing as well.  If you are interested in how I do it I have a post on my thread I can post a link to.

    Slightly over halfway down the page it starts.   If you have any questions feel free, I'm happy to help.  I can literally find anything I want in less than 30 seconds
