Rename Folder upon creation

I would like to see an option that allows me to create a new folder and it instantly lets me rename it instead of double clicking. Upon creation of the folder, it would turn the name of the folder into an input-able text box, similar to double clicking to re-name but all in one. It would save time and hassle.

@Stephen MarshThat does seem to work in a different way than I pictured but it does do what I was asking for. You can also drag layers to a folder with alt/opt held and it does the same thing.

@Bizzaro27748131a1rd – Did my reply provide a correct answer? If not, how can I help you to achieve the desired result? A Script Events Manager setup could listen for new layers or groups being created and automatically open up a renaming prompt.

Hold down the ALT/OPT key when using the icon at the foot of the Layers panel to create a New Group with dialog. Using the New Group menu option from the Layer panel menu has the same behaviour, as does the Layer menu > New > Group command.
