Моє рішення поставляється з бонусом: якщо ви вб'єте буфер, не зберігаючи його, Emacs запропонує видалити ті порожні каталоги, які були створені (але лише якщо вони не існували до того, як ви посилалися find-file):

variable so that the user will be prompted to delete the newly
created directories if they kill the buffer without saving it."
