This doesn't really make sense to me, the current one-folder-level
restriction absolutely makes sense in the context of Templates. (And
in many other contexts, it does too.)
Please don't sacrifice 80% of our users for the 5% sado-masochists
that like organising things into folders. Ooo/LibO developers have
made these kinds of compromises for a very long time and the result is
that users flee when they see LibO.
