the folder creation issue would be solved if the implementation of what constitutes a stack was changed to how we talked about it. launchers shouldn't point to folders which contain launchers. It should just be any folder present in ~/.config/plank/launchers. In this way, creating a stack from an existing location is as simple as a symlink. The name of the folder is the name of the stack.

If you create a new stack from the dock, the folder should be given a name based on the icons you combined. More than likely it'll be a logical group like "Accessories" that you can get from the .desktop file. If not, the user should be prompted to name the stack.
