Re: Feature Request: Option to hide a filter/bookmark from the bookmarks/filters panel
@NotNull Your solution would still mean that the folder will show up in the bookmarks side panel. I know. It just means one entry you can ignore vs. like 25 (?) entries to ignore.

For the new Path column drag & drop feature.
As it is still experimental, feedback is appreciated and will help to make it better.

Saving sessions on a schedule?
Just curious: Why are sessions saved every 15 seconds instead of onclose of tab/window? Firefox also saves sessions on a schedule (also 15 seconds, btw) so there must be a good reason why. Because Everything does not get a signal when it (= Everything) is closed or not enough time to save the session?
