I have to create lot of recursive folders in eclipse that gets added to my java package. These folders contain my configuration files for my testing package. I cant copy/paste as these contain .svn files which when copy/pasted screw up the revisioning system. So I was thinking can we add a new feature to the folder creation where if the file name contains file separator, it recreates the folder recursively.
Please tell me what you think of it and also if this is a good request, where can I submit it as a new request to eclipse.

Did you look at File->Import ...->FileSystem?

I thought you wanted to copy/paste. Anyway you can create a package like a.b.c. You could also create a folder like a\b\c.
