Not quite the same, but close: you can now right-click on an attribute and chose Find Getter/Setter in Palette to quickly get to the blocks.
Well, that's a cool improvement as well.
Sure, my games won't get better with all the new features of Stencyl.
But I do have more fun creating bad ones.

- It would be useful when you create a new attribute also to be able to fill it's description in that pop up.
If I understand it correctly, you refer to the description field, thats visible in the attribute detail editor on the right when you select the attribute?

Yes it is visible after you create the attribute, but it would be usefull when the creation pop up appear when you insert the attribute name, hidden or not, his type.

- To be able to create folders to organize the games in Welcome Center.
+1 for this one as well. I requested it a long time ago but got no useful answer :(
I would love to have this too, but I think it would have to be done as part of a larger task: I think the long term goal is to make Stencyl more file-based like other IDEs, so each resource would be a file, and the what you see in the welcome center and the dashboard would actually show the files on your file system. That would be great for version control too. But it would be a big change from how things are handles now, so it's not an easy task.
