It would be nice if HFS would show custom icons for folders by checking the folder for a hidden icon file. Maybe an option to set name of the .ico file to look for or just use any icon file with the hidden attribute set (or just have HFS check the path in the desktop.ini). I would prefer "Folder.ico", much like album cover applications look for "Folder.jpg".
Also, if you could please add "Folder" to the Icon Masks so the default folder icon can be modified just as easily as mime types.
As you can see in the attachment, the plain blue folders are default system icons. The ones with the check and cone are custom folders using hidden icons hidden in each directory (thus to keep them portable). This is important as each icon represents the status of those folders, either complete or in progress for example.
Thanks for the amazing program and your many hundreds of hours of work.
