When using Mirror, if a main folder is missing, create it without asking me. There is no reason not to. The error message even states that "Missing folders are created automatically when needed." I have to click "Ignore" to get the job to continue.
The ONLY case where I can see an issue is if I have (accidentally) renamed the target folder but, even then, I think the optimal (default) solution is to create the folder and do the mirroring anyway.
At a minimum, give me an option in the sync options to (automatically) create missing root folders.

If the target folder is not existing it's most likely a user error. But maybe there exists a smarter solution (without polluting the GUI with insignificant additional options).
E.g. maybe hide the error if the target's parent folder exists?

New behavior as of FFS 10.2: FFS will report not yet existing folders as warning (that can be ignored), while all errors that occured while trying to determine the folder status are still reported as such.
