"Move to" dialog: Add "current folder" button

Can we get a shortcut for "current folder" in the move to dialog?

When in a folder and want to simply create a subfolder and move selected images into it, it would be handy to have a button that selects the current folder in the move to dialog. Currently I have to search the current folder in the folder tree which is not handy with a lot of folders.
Good additional feature would be an additional button, which takes me to the folder I am currently in by one click.

+1 (both in "Copy to" and "Move to" dialog)

Already here. I use it all day. It one of the most basic features for me. Disclaimer: Pierre added it at my request many years ago in the way in which is today - I am one to blame. :(

The Copy/Move To dialog is already to Current Folder by default.

Hence, if you are in the folder "C:\Environment", select 10 photos, press "Move To" (Alt+M) and write down "Birds", the 10 photos will be moved to C:\Environment\Birds (if the subfolder does not exist, it will be created).

Interesting feature but very unintuitive. And inconsistent because "Expand" button doesn't open the current folder.

I'd suggest:
- Add a "Current folder" button in both "Copy to" and "Move to" as requested by the original poster.
- When applying "Expand" button on an empty target directory, it should expand to the current folder.
