Bookmarks - Create folder inside folder

Hi

I have searched forum (google too) and I was unable to find solution for my problem.
I previous versions of Opera (can't remember exactly which was) I was able (in bookmarks) to create folder inside folder by right-clicking on any item which is in current folder.
Now instead creating that folder inside current folder, it creates in top-level folder (or root folder, don't know how to call it properly) on the bottom.

Sorting is set to manual.
I thought that was bug and was hoping that will be fixed, but when I upgraded to Opera 11.60 I saw that this feature is actually removed.

So if you could put a option in (even just putting checkbox in opera:config) that would be great.

You can still create a 2nd level folder as long as you don't click on an existing item.

Selecting the folder on the left , right clicking and creating a new folder will create it inside and right clicking on the right on an empty space without selecting anything will also create a folder inside.
MAIN PC: 12.16 -> i7-2600k, 16GB RAM, Win 7 x64
HTPC: 15.0.1147.153 -> A10-6700, 8GB RAM, win 7 x64

I just keep getting more depressed every time I update opera. Very old bugs not fixed, easy fix not made(talking about no option to disable image resize here), new "features" even more annoying than the last ones implemented and often poor compatibility with a lot of website.

can confirm, but really doesn't bother me. At least for me it is only logical that a folder can only be created as child of another folder (or the root element), so I would never have tried to create a folder from the right-click menu of an entry.

Thanks for replies.

I know that I can create folder by right-clicking on current folder, but I want to be able to create folder right-clicking on items inside that folder and to be created inside that folder (instead on bottom of everything).
In other words, to folder be created in same way as separator does (where I click - to be created there).

For me it is much more practical to click on item since I have a lot of links inside one folder, and now I have to do:
1) scroll up
2) create folder
3) scroll down
4) move folder where I wanted to be created (which usually means a lot of scrolling time because I cannot use wheel to scroll while dragging)

Instead that I was used to do:
1) create folder exactly where I wanted

I have my manual ordering.
Also, it irritates me when I miss-click and it creates at bottom, because I then need to move it back where I wanted.
But faster way is just to delete that folder and recreate in folder that I tend to.

You should create a bug report(not sure where it is) if there's not already one. It will get fixed much faster.
