File > Save As > Create New Folder - PLEASE

When you go to save as and browse your team sites/libraries what would be great is to be able to create new folders in those libraries. Its a pain when you go to save something but then have to go into SPO to create the folder for you to then save into. This is across the whole office suite

    I agree that this introduces more clutter but I think most users coming from an on-prem solution are used to this and would like it's function back.

    Just right-click the folder dialog and do add new folder. You're asking for more clutter.

    I'm puzzled. I still have the ability to add a new folder when I save. Word 2013.
    Of course, I HAVE disabled that initial screen that they call the 'backstage' (goodness knows why it's even there or why it's got that daft name), so when I use save-as it goes straight to the file-explorer browse window complete with a create new folder option.
