I've thought about a "watch folders" feature before.
It doesn't work with Calibre because Calibre generates its own file/folder structure.
When I download a new ebook, I put it into a temporary folder. Then I drag it into Calibre for importing. Then I delete the book from the temporary folder.
Then I add my tags and metadata.
IMO it is much easier to just let Calibre take care of the underlying file/folder organizing. Once a week, I zip the entire Calibre library folder and back it up to CD.
That way, in case Calibre goes crazy and does something weird or my computer crashes, I have a recent full backup.
