Feature description

Ability to open folders in the favorites window when copying or moving files.

Why do you want this feature?

If I want to put something in a folder that's inside a favorites folder, I have to do it manually. Selecting a folder from the favorites window immediately copies/moves the file to that folder.

I think clicking on a favorite folder should just open it and clicking "OK" should perform the action. This will allow me to navigate within the favorites window, which will significantly speed up file operations.

Additional information

Example: I have a favorite folder called "Backup" and inside it are various folders, for example, for Fossify Calendar. Trying to copy something through the favorites window copies it to the "Backup" folder; I can't open it.
