[Bug 795434] [NEW] Need improved folder/file creation in list view

 

Public bug reported:

list view should either 
  1) have a thin empty space close to the edges where user can right-click to create a folder/file or
  2) not select file/folder when right-clicking on a column different from icon or name

When item list is long (scrolling active) and menu bar is hidden,
there's no simple way to create a folder/file by right-clicking as
there's no empty space available.   Settings menu gives an option to
create a tab, but not a file/folder.
