Idea:

I would like to see as the simply function for a column the date a document was added to a folder.

I would like to sort documents based upon this date.

Comment: An interesting idea, but it feels like it should be done in the applications' workflow anyway.

This would be a pretty major change to foldering, too, because it has to be stored in the folder structure itself. My understanding is that the folder is basically a list of UNIDs, but this would require it to be a list of UNIDs and a matching list of date/time values.

(It has to be stored in the folder because if you store it in the document itself it may get confused when a document is put in multiple folders.)

Still, it might be nice to have in the mail template if nothing else, so I'll promote the idea...

Comment: View can not display the data not contained in the document, ie, by placing the document in a folder, this option should be to record the date in the document. For other databases, an additional source of conflicts, so I vote against it.
You can make your own (programmatically) write the date in the document on addition.

Comment: Established baskets used in primitive applications, where no means a multi-user work. In normal applications use a basket of its own design. It is well known.
In principle, this option is possible, but that it can be off and it was turned off by default.
