I would like Scrivenings Mode to be smart enough to know it should not scrivenize the blessed Research folder itself (or let there be an option in the Behaviors settings to say Please Don’t). This is just never what’s wanted.
Touching the Research folder per se while in Scrivenings causes interminable delay (5+) minutes while Scriv struggles through all the scrivenable and unscrivenable stuff down there.
Sometimes this happens because I click the Research folder myself – just clicking away from something. Sometimes it happens because I just deleted the last document in the folder above the Research folder, and Scrivener helpfully selects the Research folder for me – except I am in Scrivenings mode, so all work stops for the spinning wheels.
