Folder creation streamlining

The process of folder creation could be more optimised.

When you go into the settings menu to create a folder, after creating one, it automatically backs you out to the home screen, so creating a batch of folders needs you to click back into the menu every time, making the process more tedious than it needs to be.

On the other hand, creating a folder by long pressing on an app goes like this:

Long press app > Add to category > Create pop-up folder > Create pop-up folder (twice in a row, yeah) > Favourites or app list.

You shouldn't need to click through a confirmation to create the folder twice in a row; it gets annoying when you want to create a few folders at once.

After the creation of the folder, there's a pop-up on screen showing you the folder and its icon, and the colour of the folder differs with each new folder created (assuming you have one with a default folder icon already). That's nice, but that pop-up should let you change the name and icon of the folder you just created, saving the hassle of needing to navigate into renaming it back at the home screen or app list.
