Known Issues:

• When typing in CAPS, certain shortcuts may trigger. Use Caps Lock instead.

TODO:

• For _componentTypes, if the first letter of _componentNames[i] == prev, continue checking the next letter until they don't match anymore - set the folder name to that string.
• If the next _componentTypes contains folder name - add to that folder e.g. NavMeshAgent, OffMeshLink
• Click on the "Generate Categories" Button under Snap -> Generate Categories.
