I ran into the issue with a fanfic with multiple lengthy author names
resulting in a K:\Fanion\ folder appearing on my device. The entire path, if untruncated, would've been 205 characters. Using sublist shortened it down nicely to 156.

It's possible to
bypass the sanitizing of illegal characters like this:
Code:
{#kobopath:re(_,/)}
You'll want to be careful with it; I think the only character that's truly safe is "/" to create subdirs.
