The one thing that would make textpad perfect for me is the to have a directory tree within the workspace to pick files from for opening. HomeSite, and Quanta on linux both have this. I'm sure others do as well.
my humble opinion

I like that idea, esp. if it has a filter so that the file tree only lets me see what's filtered, i.e., .txt and .htm/.xml files and not Excel and picture files.
not for me, thanks

If a treeview is added, I would hope its display would be optional.
I'm glad it is NOT there, within TextPad, occupying screen real estate which could be better utilized otherwise.
Performing file selection & seeing a treeview in Windows Explorer
then drag/drop selected files onto a non-maximized TextPad window
works fine for me.
-=-
For filtering (filtered file selection) use the FileFind (F3 key) in Windows Explorer... and drag
Actually, I'm in the habit of using TextPad for searches
( Search-}FindInFiles )
v/s the Find feature in Windows Explorer.
This allows you to click the result lines and jump right to the edit point in each of the target files.

There is a new enhancement request forum where you should post this request. Make sure it's not already there.

I definitely think this is a useful idea, esp. when used as a file filter. Crimson Editor has perhaps the best implementation of this feature (crimsoneditor.com). A better question is: Why not?
