dotCooCoo 52efba54aa Scripts: File › Scripts lists the Scripts folder, subfolders as submenus
File › Scripts now lists the .js and .jsx files of the Scripts folder next
to the preferences, each named after its file without the extension, with
each subfolder as a submenu, above Check Script… and Other Script…. The
help page describes this listing:
https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/automate-visualize-data/automate-actions/install-and-run-scripts.html

Choosing a listed script runs it through script.run without the warning
Other Script… shows. script.listInstalled returns the same listing, and
ui.runInstalledScript {path} runs one entry.

VectorCraft's own rules: the folder is read off the UI thread when the
app starts, when its window becomes active and when the File menu of the
window's menu bar opens; only names are read; links, junctions, hidden
and system entries are left out and checked again before a run; one read
stops at 2,048 entries, 512 scripts, 128 subfolders, 4 levels or 250 ms
and the menu then notes that some scripts were not listed. Under an
automation read root, script.listInstalled and ui.menu.list leave out a
folder outside the root.

#1183 (LloydNicholson) also proposed a Scripts menu listing a folder.
