To test: What happens when you have a lot of folders / when you are a registrar?

Question from @clare-stanton:
What happens when you sign-in to the extension using an account that has lots of folders (i.e: registrar account)?
Is the idea of using dashes to represent depth in the folders dropdown going to cut it in that case?

Discussed:

• Did a quick test. Should be ok for launch.
• Suggestion by Clare: Maybe a future version could have a "favorites" system for easy access to folders that are used often?

We have a report that registrar users affiliated with a humongous number of orgs, over 300, are not able to select all of them here... I suspect due to something similar to harvard-lil/perma#3345 or harvard-lil/perma#3178. To be investigated! This will be fun.

Ah! Looks like me from July 2022 kind of knew this would come back 😛 ! Thanks for flagging @rebeccacremona

FWIW: my initial understanding seems to be somewhat off. It looks like the largest registrar has only 198 orgs... and no user can be an registrar user for multiple registrars.

SELECT registrar_id, COUNT(*) as orgs FROM perma_organization GROUP BY registrar_id ORDER BY orgs DESC;

 registrar_id | orgs 
--------------+------
          648 |  198
          938 |  150
...

I think the extension cuts off after the first 100 (unlike the Perma web app)
