Bug Description

When I want to create a new folder or file in nautilus I have to right click on an empty area and select "Create New Folder" from the context menu. However when I'm using list view, and i have lots of files in it, there is no empty area on the screen, so I'm unable to access this context menu, I have only access to the context menu of the files. So I'm unable to create new folders there

The solution should be this:
- Every context menu should contain a "Create new folder" option (even location bar context menu)
- Additionally right clicking on a folder should allow us to create a folder (create files??) *inside* that folder. This should work on the location bar too.
