Unable to change the checkpoints dir to "stable-diffusion", and if I symlink it, everything appears doubled

Hello folks! I'm attempting to integrate Stability Matrix as a new model organizer tool for an existing large collection with an already long-established process. I have a rather large number of tools that integrate with my models repo, and that repo uses the more classic "stable-diffusion" path for storing checkpoint models.

I am trying to get Stability Matrix to download to that dir instead of "StableDiffusion" but it seems hard-coded for some reason. I even saw there was a setting for it specifically in the settings json:

    "Checkpoint": {
      "SelectedInstallLocation": "Models\\StableDiffusion"
    }

But Stability Matrix apparently ignores this entirely. In fact if I change it, it just gets reverted automatically next time I try to download anything.

So I attempted the usual trick of creating StableDiffusion as a link to stable-diffusion, which works for the installation of new models, but now Stability Matrix shows every one of my checkpoints as duplicated. I've since reverted to having StableDiffusion be its own non-symlinked dir.

Currently my work-around is a simple wrapper script that automatically moves all the contents of StableDiffusion to stable-diffusion before launching the app, and again after it closes. It's hacky though, and I'd like to avoid that.

So I guess my post here is a request for one of two enhancements:

• Either an enhancement to allow custom setting the individual model type directories, or
• An enhancement so it doesn't double-up on the models if a symlink is used.

Thanks for your time!
