"New Folder" menu item should be removed from the File menu

[gruehle]

The "New Folder" command is selection-sensitive, so it should only be in the context menu. It should be removed from the top-level File menu.

I think I managed to fix this problem. See above pull request.

@gruehle doesn't "New File" fall in the same category? New Folder will create a new folder at the project root if there is no selection. Same with new file.

The idea is that eventually "New File" will transition to mean "New Untitled File" (i.e., it won't do what it does today), so we should just keep it in the menu.

Is there any way to disable the command and have the command state reflected in the menu? This concerns me because it makes the command difficult to access without a mouse.

None of the other file tree commands are in the main menu right now, so they all pretty much have the same problem. If we want to address keyboard accessibility for the file tree context menu, we'll need to find a more general solution.

May I ask what the status of this bug is at the moment?

@DaBungalow - your pull request is open for committers to review, but no one's picked it up yet (and the core team was out last week due to the US holiday). I expect we'll do a scrub of open pull requests soon and get yours merged since it's straightforward. Thanks for your patience.

Confirmed, closing.
