Description

A simple enough idea is: if the user is in a special folder, add the folder name to the end of the space info with a middle dot separator (looks great but will probably be ellipsised for most folder names) or on a new line (folder names more visible).

How it would look (switched the positions of the progress bar and text so that the progress bar remains closer to the quota info):

What do you think? I'm leaning towards the second one because it is more clear :)

Research direction

Start by reviewing the two screenshots and locating the current space/quota display in the web interface. Done means the quota display is scoped to the current special folder and presents its name with an agreed separator or line layout, with the progress bar positioned as shown.
