Option to show the Nested Collection (tree-view) in New Window

Currently, i'm having over 850+ link and about 50+ total of nested collection, a lot of them had at least 3-4 stacked level. When i'm doing some research, then bookmarking stuff and when i need to re-organize them it's just feel hard to move some of them into a proper collection. So i hope if you guys can make an option to view the nested-collection into a new window (side-by-side), with an option like that. For some case like having so much of nested collection or stacked level of nested collection, i'm sure we can easily find & match which collection we need to go into.

I have the same request but for a different use case.
In the view dropdown of options I want an View option called "Explorer", "List with Folders" or "Directory" or some other appropriate name. The reason is because currently sub collection folders are not shown in the existing views.
In addition this view has to have an option to go one directory up. Other than that it works exactly the same as The List View.
An alternative could be a checbox instead of a new View option. This checkbox if checked will show subfolders and go up parent directory. I imagine this would be more complex to implement as you would have to add this functionality to all 4 existing views.
The reason I want this is that I have a collection called BookmarkBar that I use for bookmarks I visit often. I use this as a browser bookmark replacement by accessing the bookmarks from the sidebar. The standard browser toolbar does allow folders but raindrop doesn't show it in its bookmarks. This makes sense when raindrop is open full screen, but doesn't make sense if raindrop is open in sidebar for quick access where I want to click on the folder to quickly navigate and go up a parent directory.

I agree. There are some fine options shown when you right click on a group in the navigation pane. However, it could use a couple more. Where exactly those options are turned on or off isn't really relevant.
By way of example, in Windows File Explorer, when you click the drop down for the navigation pane, it provides these options:
1) Expand to open folder
2) Show all folders
In my opinion, these are very necessary options.
I have over 1600 bookmarks organized into nested collections and groups. When I search All Bookmarks and click on a collection returned, I should have the option see exactly where in the navigation pane my bookmark is located.
Since those two options are not available, finding the location in the navigation pane bookmark is located is difficult.

Phoenix Horne: Windows makes a mistake with "pane" is panel, I didn't see that.

In case this helps other users as of 12/28/2020 I am able to have two browser windows open side by side, and easily drag and drop bookmarks between them. I think it's a pretty good workaround.

Along these lines, it would also be helpful if the nested folders could be represented in a tree-like orientation, sort of like a mind-map or ontology. It would also be neat if the relationships between folders (edges) could be given tags.
