[Bug Report/Feature Request] Nesting folders breaks inherited authentication #234

Hi,

This is the second of two bug reports/feature requests :) May have arisen just because the folder feature is relatively new.
I found this when testing a collection with Oauth2 Client Credentials configured.

Using subfolders, such as below breaks authentication inheritance:

A folder with requests inside it works as you would expect in terms of inheriting credentials:

If I create a folder structure such as [Folder] -> [Subfolder] -> Request, authentication options must be set either directly on the request or at the immediate parent folder (i.e. [Subfolder]) . Setting the options on [Folder] will not work.

In an ideal world the source of inherited authentication options would be shown somewhere. Perhaps a clickable "Inherited from [Folder] -> [Subfolder]" and changing the text of "Enable" to "Override" when inherited options are present?

Thanks again for the great work building Yaade <3
