There is no Cut & Paste for folder scanning. You can use right click on a folder in the Location and Folders node and start scan from the Context Menu to just get that folder scanned.

Easy way to add tracks

In MM4 on Windows, you could go File -> Add/Rescan and cut-n-paste a directory path to quickly add files to the database. MM4 would just scan and add the selected directory. Very fast.

In MM5 under "Add/Rescan", it seems you can't cut-n-paste a directory path any longer, and instead you need to manually navigate to the directory - a much less handy process - and then click "Scan Now" to pick-up the newly-added directory... also causing MM5 to rescan ALL watched directories, even the ones marked for scanning only at startup! Overall, a much slower and cumbersome process.

Or am I missing an easier way? Thanks!
