Is there a way to search for folder (directory) in PhpStorm?

I can press Ctrl + Shift + F in PhpStorm, and I will get a window with search options. I can search for particular string in all project files, I can leave "Text to find" field empty and put name of the file I'm looking for in "File mask(s)" field to find a particular file, but is there a way to find a folder by its name?

File or Folder right click > Mark Directory as > Excluded

Only blue directories will be searched

In Find in Path dialog (Ctrl + Shift + F) -- No.

But you can use Navigate | File... for that (Ctrl + Shift + N on Windows/Linux using Default keymap)

enter image description here

The key is to use path separator / to denote that the previous part was a folder.

Same as actual search for file name: the directory name can be partial: phpd/ will match phpdoc/ if that the only folder. Similar with capital letters: mff/ will match MyFavouriteFolder/.
