Is it possible to have uncompressed files in the root of a folder without having to be in "set" folders? I know the official way would be to either have them in a supported compressed format, like zip, 7z, rar OR for them to be in set folders under the ROMPath. These files don't need to be compressed, and I really don't want one file per sub folder when they can be nicely in one directory. These aren't CHD's, but I did notice there was an option for CHD's to "Allow CHDs in ROMPath root". Would it be possible to get that option for any file type?

No, sorry.
If you got a collection where 1 set contains just one rom, you need to keep them archived or you need to modify the datfile (instead of having n sets with 1 rom each, have one set with n roms).

By the way...if I'm not mistaken MAME removed the "keep chd on rompath root" option...so actually this option became useless over time :)
