The #folder tag is supposed to provide a quick way to find the recently imported notes and can be easily removed by right-clicking on it.

FYI feedback from my partner, not a nerd:

Deep confusion. She said that she’d have no idea why that was there, and would be afraid to delete it.

I suggest it might need to be more descriptive. For example when one imports to Apple Photos, those photos end up in a folder called ‘Last Import’ (or something like that). So it’s really obvious what it is.
