I believe this is already in Mantis.

> MediaMonkey doesn't allow you to only select a parent without having any child folders selected,

More precisely: MediaMonkey allows you to only select a parent without having any child folders selected, but then it selects the child folders.

The problem is that MediaMonkey doesn't allow you to only select a parent without having any child folders selected, so it doesn't matter if it's only one or many child folders.

Workaround is to drag & drop the files from Windows Explorer onto the Library node.

uncheckmark an only child folder

Expected: parent remains checkmarked
Observed: Parent gets uncheckmarked, and MM disallowed setting only its checkmark, preventing selection of only the files directly in the parent folder.
