Different paths (folders)

I discovered HeidiSQL recently, and I already like it (I was still using MySQL-Front to run queries, but many other tools for different tasks - as SQLyog to import data, MySQL GUI Tools for some administrative tasks etc. - since it had some troubles with UTF-8 databases and tables, no matter how I've configured client and connection settings... - with Heidi it seems to work just fine even without messing with those settings too much). It seems I'll be able to do most of the job with a single program again... 8)

But, there is one thing that bothers me. I have queries in some folders (organized by tasks), and import/export data from/to - mainly CSV - files. It is very annoying to "travel" all the time to the right location. :x

So, I wonder if it would be possible to:
1. introduce some sort of bookmarks (favorites) so user can easily navigate to a different location
or
2. introduce settings so user can enter different defaults for locations where open a query from, save a query to (different defaults, as I open some tested queries all the time, but save many temporary queries to some TEMP location...), import data from a file and export table or query results to a file (also different locations, as I import data and export different reports...). Maybe even different locations for different extensions. And, the option "last used", different for different actions (as above) - more or less something similar to what ZIP tools have in options...
:?:

Such a solution would make my life (using HeidiSQL) much more comfortable, and probably the others would find it useful as well. :wink:
