Currently, if you have a folder in the SceneGraph Explorer and select it, the move tool appears in the viewport. But you cannot do anything with it. It would be nice to be able to select the folder and move everything in it. If you make an object the child of another object, you can select the parent, move it, and both the parent and child move. It would be great if grabbing a folder would act like this as well. This way the end-user could not only organize sections of their level in a folder if they wanted to, but move that entire section, too.
For example of this, look at how Photoshop works with layers and layer folders. In fact, just about any program with a scene graph or layer system works this way.

Yes, folders are a bit special. Maybe I'll add the possibility to have them have a transformation as well.

Thanks! That would be awesome. :)
My workaround is to have one item be the parent (instead of a folder) and all the other related items a child. Then I can just select the parent item and move everything all at once.
