Describe your suggested feature

I like to personally manage my manga and one thing that would make organization and finding the page I want much easier is if I could import a file like .cbz as a manga and use subfolders as different chapter marks.

The file structure would look like this:

Manga.cbz
|
|---Chapter1
| |---P1.jpg
| |---P2.png
| |---...
| |---P24.png
|
|---Chapter2
| |---P1.png
| |---P2.png
| |---...
| |---P19.png

This is similar to another user's request, however different in one important way. Their request treats folders as a book and a .cbz as a chapter, whereas I treat a .cbz as a book and use folders as chapters. So it's basically flipped.

I am stupid, was using F-droid version, switched to github version. Probably just my device or something, sorry. Using github version folders are recognized as chapters with cbz files.
