Saving more "move to" paths?

Hi everyone, I'm new here, so sorry if I make any mistakes. I'll describe:

What I do:
- Right click a file on Dolphin
- Go to "Move to"
- See my 3 last used paths

What I want:
- store more than 3 paths there
or
- pin some paths

I know I can click Browse, but I'm trying to save clicks, I have to do this a lot.

Is there any way to do this? Should I ask in another site? Thank you.

This does not exist in Dolphin. You could visit KDE Dolphin Discuss and post a feature request there, without guarantee it will be implemented.
That said, if you have a lot of files to move, it could be worth considering the "mv" (=move) command in a terminal. If you are not familiar with the command line, this could be an opportunity to use it.

Could you create new bookmarks in Dolphin for the most common locations, then just Drag 'n' Drop?

I find using midnight commander (mc) in a terminal works great as it has a two pane interface and is can also be used for network locations (sftp).

Thanks to all of you! I was curious about adding options to the context menu but, as it can't be done, your alternatives are perfectly valid.
