Description
This is a feature request from Coca-Cola.

I spend a lot of my time in SE and ever with this ‘cleaned up’ version, I get crossed eyed and sometimes select the wrong one (structure is similar).
It would be nice to have like a custom directory structure or grouping on top of the file systems themselves (lol…sounds ridiculous but would be of some help).
I would lean to the side of just a visual aid like a hierarchy, at the end user’s perspective (the SE app itself). Hmm, might be cool to also have an option auto group by the region or location the account resides in too. Just some thoughts.

Research direction
The issue identifies Quick Access in the Storage Explorer app but names no files or tests. Start by locating the Quick Access implementation and reviewing the attached screenshot; the work is done only after the grouping or hierarchy behavior and any automatic region-based grouping are clearly defined and implemented.
