GitHub user LiamTorrelli added a comment to the discussion: allow creating 
folders under charts/dashboards

+1 on folders still mattering even with tags — the warehouse metaphor in 
heyromnivan's comment nails it.

One nuance since sfirke's 2024 comment: upstream now has `DATASET_FOLDERS` in 
6.x (drag-and-drop folder editor for datasets). Dashboards/charts are still 
flat. So the "tags vs folders" debate isn't fully settled in practice — folders 
arrived for one asset type, not the discovery surface most business users live 
in.

We've been running Superset in production at scale and wrote a longer breakdown 
of:
- where TAGGING_SYSTEM breaks down (discovery model, export, schema edge cases)
- why flat lists fail around 50+ dashboards
- how folder hierarchies + DASHBOARD_RBAC interact when you need team-scoped 
browsing

Not arguing tags are useless — they're great for cross-cutting filters. But for 
"show me what Finance has without knowing the tag vocabulary", folders (or 
something folder-like) still win.
