Feature: Creating a file with a slash in its name should create a new folder

[Lamparter]

What feature or improvement do you think would benefit Files?

Currently if you create a file with a slash in its name (e.g. example/file.txt) both Files and File Explorer report that such a name is invalid (files cannot contain slashes). The proposal is to allow slashes in file name creation, which instead creates a new directory - in the example, creating the text file would create a new directory named example with a file named file.txt)

Requirements

• Detect if file name has a slash inside it during creation/rename
• Create new directory on demand

Files Version

3.8.5.0

Windows Version

10.0.22631.4391

Comments

An extended implementation of this could be that putting ../ in the file name would place it in the previous directory.

Isn't this the same as #15745

Yes
Evidently I didn't see that issue first 😄
