Description

Preflight Checklist
Problem

I have a lot of storage accounts that only make sense within resource groups

Desired Solution

I'd love to be able to see my storage accounts by resource group

Alternatives and Workarounds

The only alternative is to use connection strings to have more meaningful names

Additional Context

Our storage account names are procedurally created, the resource group is what allows us to find it. It'd be nice to also be able to filter by them

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing Hierarchy View for accounts and how storage accounts are currently presented. Define how resource groups should form the hierarchy and how filtering by resource group should work; done means users can find storage accounts through their resource groups instead of relying on generated names.
