New description:

 Move to, Copy to, and Create Link sub menus are extremely complex, due to
 the number of folders and sub folders ([attachment:before.png]).

 There's much room for improvement, it can be simplified. I made a rough
 image with gimp so as to show how it could look like
 ([attachment:after.png]). I think new users would benefit from this, my
 image is just a suggestion and I hope it will trigger a discussion on how
 to further improve it.
