Wrap files in a directory

I think it would be very handy if the rip files in archives were wrapped in a directory. That way we wouldn't have to make a new one every time.

Whether the ZIPs contain a folder with all files or stores all files in the root is a design decision.
Back in 2011 we decided that we don't wrap the files in a separate folder. (This is also what SMSPower does.)
I don't think we will change that anymore.

Also, especially on Windows, you are most likely to extract into a folder named after the ZIP file, so storing files in the root is just more handy there.
If you are on a Unix system, then I can give you tips about how to extract into archives named after the ZIP.
