I desperately need the ability to group/categorize my notes (mostly labeled
highlights) into different folders and subfolders in the notes pane. In the
ebook I'm currently reading as part of my research, I'm up to 59 notes and all
I've finished is the Preface and the Introduction. Especially given that it
was an introduction - I know the author will touch on many of these things in
more detail later, but I don't want to miss anything of importance or anything
that is more clearly explained the first time around. So I need to the ability
to go back when I've finished a book, create folders and subfolders for certain
topics and sub-topics, and then drag and drop my highlights and underlines into
those folders. This is especially crucial when reading ebooks/articles by
authors who jump around a lot. I could give my notes pane better organization
than they gave their book/article.
I found the following post that touches on this, but the guy is just told no (I
don't know what RFEs are).
Is the feature there and I'm just not finding it? Is there a better feature
built into skim that I should use instead?
This feature is a game-breaker for me. Any help is appreciated.

No, you can search the RFEs for the more detailed answer.
