Has there been any discussion about allowing folders to be placed in the dock?

It seems like this would be of great help in keeping your projects organized.

I relize you can do the same thing with a folder on the desktop but being the neat freak I am I would love to be able to access files without 1. cluttering the desktop and 2. cluttering the dock with multiple files from the same project.

Thanks all
Scott

I guess I wasn't clear about my question.

If a folder is in the dock I would like to see the contents pop up when you roll your pointer over it.

Making individual files available from the folder without opening the folder.

Well you can view the contents by ctrl-clicking (right clicking with 2 button mouse), but not with a mouseover.
