I think that is a bug.  It doesn't clear the list of entries when you page
down, and the list ends before it hits the bottom of the screen.

Well, gfiles does do exactly that.  I have several examples of subdirectories
in on my Textfiles area and my Daily News area.  Create subdirectory in your
base gfiles directory.  Then hit 'A' to add the new subdirectory to the
entries list, and the directory should show up on the list. Use 'M' to move the
entry to your desired position.  Use 'U' to update the text of the entry.
