Users should be able to select a location other than the default when slurping a page.

Approach Suggestions
Here are three ideas for this to aid in UX and making the process of changing the slurp target much more flexible:

  1. on the URL prompt for the slurp action, provide a checkbox that says "Use last target ([last/folder/path/target])" that is, by default, checked.
    IF unchecked, a field that allows searching for folders is presented to set the target. This way it's not prompting for a folder on every slurp, maintaining the lovely speed and ease of use it has currently. That said, I did find that when I remembered I wanted to have the result go to a different folder, it was when I was staring at the "What would you like to slurp" prompt when I thought about it. Incidently, I set the Slurp: Create note from URL command to CTRL+SHIFT+S and that has been pretty good with not conflicting with other add-ons and Obsidian as a whole.

  2. Add to context menu for folders an action of "Set as Slurp Target". This sets the target default.
    Some CSS flair to mark the target in the folder list would also be nice.

  3. Add a setting that will always use Obsidian's default "Files and Links --> Default location for new notes" as the target folder.
