Research direction

Start by tracing the OPML import path and the folder drag-and-drop behavior described in the report. Verify how parent-child relationships and duplicate subfolder names are represented, then confirm that imported nested folders remain nested and same-named folders under different parents stay distinct.

Description

sidebar UI

I exported my NetNewsWire 4 feeds to OPML and then imported it into NNW 5. I had multiple levels of folders in it, and they all became top-level folders. Some of the subfolders had the same name, but were under different parent folders, and they all got merged together. Poking around at it, I don't see a way to create subfolders, and trying to drag and drop a folder doesn't seem to work either.
