Set default folder

Allow successive folder assignments
After successfully adding select citations from a list of records to a 1st folder, allow the user to go through the list again to pick other citations to add to other folders. Currently the "apply" button doesn't show up again until you refresh the page.

Other tools like JabRef, Citavi, Zotero... have already native support for BibLaTeX.
