Scott Wilson commented on WOOKIE-391:
-------------------------------------
+1 I think that would make sense.
The only reason you might not want to do this would be if there is a typo in
the properties - for example you already do have a folder ready called
"mywidgets" but typed "mywodgets" in widgetserver.properties. However, I think
thats more of an edge case where the admin could revert it themselves to fix.
The other option is to make the behaviour configurable, but I don't think in
this case that would really add much value.

> If a user changes the default widget.widgetfolder to another location (such
> as the old wservices folder for example), then this can cause problems. If
> the folder does not already exist then wookie fails to import any widgets.
> Manually creating the folder fixes the problem. We should add a check to read
> the property first and then check if that folder is there, creating it if
> needed.
