I am with Guenther on this one. Although the biggest bug of them all
would be "why create a location pick when i click on a folder and 
say new folder ?, isnt it understood that i need a sub folder under 
folder ?". I dont see the premise of having nested search folders at all
especially when i can attach multiple rules and make it one folder.

Like for example, consider search folder one contains all of partha's
mails and its nested subfolder contains all of partha's mail to shreyas
and  the other nested folder contains all of partha's mail to michael. 

Is this easier if u have nested search folders or if u have two search
folders
(with suitable and conditions, eg from partha and to shreyas) and so,

I would tilt towards the latter, the former is just confusing.
