In visual studio 2010, when publishing a website, it seems that empty folders are not being published.

I am quite sure that this behavior were introduced in vs2010. I cant find it documented anywhere, not sure if I should call it a feature or a bug… Anyway, is it possible to revert to the old behavior as I wish to keep my folder structure on the production server.
