Have an 'Unsorted' item for Folders, and 'Unlabelled' item for labels
All Mail can sometimes end up with mail itens in there that have no label or folder. There is currently no way to filter out emails that have no folder or label.
My proposal is to either have the items 'Unsorted' and 'Unlabelled' in the left bar OR in the search dialog have an item there we can click that will specifically bring up email that has no folder or label.

I use the -hasuserlabel search query on gmail all the time. All my emails are labelled, otherwise something has slipped through the cracks.
Having the ability to find unlabelled emails would be nice.

Many people ask for having real folders, so they don't get their inbox cluttered even when auto-labelling (filtering) mails and so they are still able to find non-filtered mails.
When introducing filters it would be great to introduce an 'unlabelled' label along the existing ones, so while using filters one can still easily find mails that no filters is applied to yet.
While the inbox is still 'cluttered' this doesn't really matter because one can find 'new' mails using the 'unlabelled' label.
