Option to select specific folders in Test Planning to add to Phase.

I'd like to have the ability to select specific folders with test cases to be added to a Phase in Test Planning.  With current functionality, when you go to add test cases, you can click the folders you want, but only the test cases will be shown for the Phase after adding.  There is the checkbox, "Bring Hierarchy of testcase(s)", but this does not help with what I'm requesting.  If you check that box, then Zephyr brings in all folders associated with the test cases.  In our case, we have a few levels of folders and this helps with organizing our test cases in Test Repository, but it's not always needed to have all those levels in Test Planning and Test Execution.  I'm attaching 4 screenshots to illustrate what's requested.

Test_Planning_Add_Testcases_to_Cycle_specific_folders.jpg - this is a screenshot of custom set of folders checked on the Add Testcases screen in Test Planning.  This is the structure I'd like to see for the Phase. In this case, the "Bring Hierarchy..." checkbox is unchecked.

Test_Planning_Add_Testcases_to_Cycle_specific_folders_results.jpg - this screenshot shows the results of trying to add specific folders with the "Bring Hierarchy..." box unchecked.  Only the test cases are added as a result.

Test_Planning_Add_Testcases_to_Cycle_specific_folders_Bring_hierarchy_checked.jpg - this screenshot shows the same custom set of folers checked on the Add Testcases screen in Test Planning, but the "Bring Hierarchy..." box is checked.  

Test_Planning_Add_Testcases_to_Cycle_specific_folders_Bring_hierarchy_checked_results.jpg - this scrneeshot shows the results of having the "Bring Hierarchy.." box checked, but with a custom set of folders selected.  The result is the entire folder tree is pulled in, instead of only the folders that were selected. 

As a workaround, I have to create the desired folder structure manually and this is time consuming.  I request an enhancement to allow for only a custom set of selected folders to populate the Phase in Test Planning.
