+\r
+Given that we're in feature freeze and ready for an imminent release of\r
+0.18, I think it's pretty safe to say, no.\r
+\r
+---\r
+\r
+It's not going to help you, but I'll mention a few of the issues the old\r
+folder: search had, which we also had complaints about, and which would\r
+have been quite hard to fix while preserving the behaviour you want. In\r
+short, we considered the old folder: search broken.\r
+\r
+Given layout:\r
+\r
+ Foo/{cur,new}\r
+ foo/{cur,new}\r
+ fooing/{cur,new}\r
+ bar/foo/{cur,new}\r
+ cur\r
+ new\r
+\r
+It was impossible to refer to the top level folder.\r
+\r
+It was impossible to refer to foo without also referring to Foo, fooing,\r
+and bar/foo.\r
+\r
+In your layout, if you also had 2013/.bar.foo, folder:foo would match\r
+that as well. To not match that, you would have to include each\r
+folder:.foo.xxx in the search.\r
