A valuable feature to add to ghostwriter would be an "open folder" option in the File menu, allowing for all .md files in a a folder to be shown in a tree view in the sidebar. This would allow users to switch between multiple .md files for note taking or bulk editing, rather than keeping multiple instances of ghostwriter open.

For example, see the screenshot in this unrelated StackOverflow post about NP++: https://stackoverflow.com/a/35767074

This feature would make Ghostwriter my #1 writing application.
