Personally I don't agree with you at all. I prefer what you call "media browsing experience" or "As a user I dont care about files and folder, I just want to watch movies.. show me that!" It is about time to get rid of the filesystem concept.
But anyway in Plex you browse by folder since the beginning, and you can still do it in this new version of media player, as you could do it with a file browser + VLC solution
