(Suggestion) Small Changes including GUI's, Templates, Block types, and more.

Currently MCreator is kind of restrictive, while I know that the developer is going to come to a halt on this project I still think that even if it takes a while that some things could use a change, of course not everyone will agree with me on that since some things need changes faster then others but these are just suggestions so whether they get added or not isn't really up to me.

|

| Workspace Changes

- Folders: Right-clicking the empty space where your mod items are located will bring up a folder creation button which once clicked will create a folder and allow you to name it, once named it will be located (by default) in the top left corner, items that are right-clicked and held can be moved (this would include placement on the workspace and folder location).

- Icon Fixes: Currently some items just show as textures, so I propose an update to these where they will look for the model and texture of said thing and will show the icon as the correct model and texture instead of just showing the texture, I only see this with stairs, slabs, fences, gates, walls, doors, trapdoors, and some custom blocks.

- Item/Block Selector Texture Changes: The current item/block selector for things like recipes has two problems: first, some custom blocks have the same icon problem that the workspace does which I think could use a fix, and secondly the textures look sort of weird, I'm not sure if its possible but I think vanilla items/blocks should have the same icons that the current version (that MCreator uses) have.

And that's it... for now, some of these might be a bit harder to do then others but I still think that they are small enough to not be too hard/time consuming to do though I don't know anything about coding so I might be wrong.
