When creating a new folder, center the view to that new one
Currently, if you go to some path that has multiple folders (more than what you are able to see in one blender folder screen) and you click the "new folder" button, you don't see the new folder after it's creation. And now you need to write the new name of that new folder, but you have no idea what you are writing because the folder is somewhere out of your sight. Because of that, I have done so many "new folder" named folders accidentally. Then I need to go in windows explorer to rename the new folder. Now Blender path might get broken because it does not anymore understand where the file is.

Interesting. I've always created new folders using the File Path text field (you can type the name of a folder there and if it doesn't already exist, Blender will create the folder for you after prompting), Blender automatically switches into that folder after you make it so you never have the problem of not seeing the folder as you name it.
Good point. I've never used that. I always used the UI button.
Center the view on it, and make it selected once the name is validated. So that you can press <kbd>enter</kbd> to enter in.
Or actually: 2x<kbd>enter</kbd> to validate the name and enter in almost instantly.
