Prevent members from Moving any folders within team folders.

I've seen a topic like the one I'm writing now suggesting to prevent team members from moving any selected folders. I came here just to emphasis how this feature (Member roles Or Folder restrictions) is VERY important in business and I can tell in short words what happed to the business yesterday when one of the member mistakenly moved one of the HOT working projects to another destination. The project literally paralyzed for around 3 hours after noticing the MOVING action and trying to fix it and not to mention what happened to the team when suddenly they couldn't save their work(Media footage editing) the moment the files disappeared and also the whole team was setting waiting for the synchronization process to finish (first the mistaken moving and next moving back the moved folder to its original path). 

Wish we can have a specific restriction on selected folders and giving the permission to move to selected member by the admin. 

Here is a recap for my suggestion suggestion:
FOLDER SETTINGS ---------- VIEWING , EDITING, MOVING
                                                         ON               ON          OFF
USERS PERMESSIONS            DELETING, MOVING
                                                           OFF            OFF
