In an earlier question, I've found out that sadly Solution Folders are not real folders inside a directory.
I wonder if there is an AddOn or Macro that adds this functionality? i.e. when I create a Solution Folder, it created a real folder. When I Create a new Item (Right Click => Add => New Item) it automatically moves them into that folder, removing causes it to delete it from disk (after asking) etc.
This is for Visual Studio 2005, although we might upgrade to 2008 in a few months.

Add files to a solution To add an item to a solution, on the context (right-click) menu of the solution node in Solution Explorer, select Add > New Item, or Add > Existing Item. A solution file is a structure for organizing projects in Visual Studio.
Solution 1 From the Visual Studio menu choose "File | New | Project..." Solutions" and create a blank solution. point it to your web site to add it to your new solution.
On the Visual Studio menu bar, choose File > Open > Folder, and then browse to the code location. On the context (right-click) menu of a folder containing code, choose the Open in Visual Studio command. Choose the Open Folder link on the start window.
As of now, this doesn't seem to be possible in either VS 2005, 2008 and 2010 and there is no AddIn for this.

I too thought it was a strange idea. However it can be a useful tool to logically group projects in solutions without necessarily moving around folders in the file system.
