Everything going into the main folder creates inventory chaos. Especially for new users.

It would be nice if creators could somehow use an identification system for their folders that would insert the folder into the correct location upon unpacking the product. For example, if I'm selling clothes, it would be preferable for the unpacked folder to show up in the CLOTHES section of the buyer's inventory rather than every person needing to drag it into the correct place. Likewise, if I'm selling a bunch of textures, it would be nice to be able to internally "mark" (perhaps in properties) that my product should go into the Textures folder once unpacked. ***NOTE: Users should still be able to copy/paste/drag these folders wherever they choose if they prefer a different location.

This was part of my idea for labels / tags, and different variants of them. You can read my comments on this post here, where I also refer back to an old Jira post of mine: https://feedback.secondlife.com/feature-requests/p/add-custom-tags-to-inventory-items and I believe it was this Jira post I made: https://github.com/secondlife/jira-archive/issues/10988

Catznip does this by letting users choose the folders to save to. Might be good to see if Kitty's code for that can be integrated into newer viewers

This is a terrible idea because if I unpack an item and it goes into the top level folder under Inventory, then I know where to find it. If that item ends up in an already populated folder it will be hard to find. Consider pants, they should go under Clothes. Makes sense. What about a HUD? What about a weapon? What about a wearable vehicle? So on and so forth. As difficult as it seems to manage inventory, and we all struggle, if you don't know where something lands it's impossible to find. I already have trouble finding some newly unpacked items due to store's naming schemes.
