Dragging folders to create a set and collections?

Question

I know I can drag folders onto the collections tab to create a collection, but it flattens all the subfolders. Is there a way to drag a folder with subfolders and create collections in a collection set?
If it helps, an example is that sometimes I may be moving folders to another location and a different structure, and before I do so I want to preserve that folder structure in a collection set.

Does it only do the entire folder tree?
Yes.
A logical place to add the feature you want is in the Collection Agent plugin, which has similar features already for duplicating collection sets etc.. - would you use it if it had such a feature? Note: it won't be as slick as drag n' drop - You'd have to select the parent folder, invoke a function to record, then select the position where collection set will need to be, and invoke another function to create. And it may not be obvious how to do all that without reading the instructions.. i.e. klunky, but if it's something you do often, it would be easier than creating manually..
