Add folder description/meta data in Vault Folder Tree

Add folder description/meta data in Vault Folder Tree

In our company, we have a special folder structure to manage our project data.
i. e. Department/Site -> Departmentcode+year -> Project Number -> Project Folders/Files
Projekte Germany - > ar20 -> 012356 -> Subfolderstructure

 For a better and faster overview, we add some information to the folder naming. i. E. the full project name. All this data is imported from our erp software. Sometimes the project name and unique description consume more than 80 characters. In combination with the subfolders and filenames, the working directory path could be longer than windows supports it. (i know you can upgrade the path support for more than 260 characters in windows 10).My suggestion/desire would be to give the folders a property which is displayed in the treeview (in our case all information between the brackets).

Whatever...it would be nice to have a possibility to change the folder tree setup/display in the configuration!
