I'm sure I'm missing something, but this has been driving me crazy. I can create tab folders a document, but I don't see any affordance for deleting them. Searching the help/forums/google it seems like this is (was?) intended?

    Thanks @Matt_Shields. That's the least intuitive name for an operation I've seen in a long time. Especially because AFAICT there is no "pack" and all the other tabs have a "delete". 🤷TIL

    it's because it doesn't delete the content of the folder. the documents inside all remain, just no longer in the folder.
    Delete suggests the behaviour that it deletes the folder including it's content…

    SO if you would want to delete, you go into the tab manager, select all documents inside it, delete them and subsequently unpack the folder.
