Or without fixing the config files. :)

I might have missed (or forgot) the discussion. The solution would be to 
identify the folders based on remoteId. But remoteId is unique only inside a 
certain folder, so the code will be somewhat more complex (you would 
basically need to store a full path of remoteId's). It is doable, but the 
problem is as always: somebody needs to code it, including with upgrade 
scripts for existing configuration files.
