Empty folders missing in gateway backup/reztore

Ignition

I have a project with several folders created under Perspective\Views. Some of the folders are empty but there for future development.
When I create a full gateway backup of my live server then restore it to another machine, tbe empty folders aren't created on the restore. Is this by design? Might something else be missing?

Normal behavior of zip files. They don't store folders at all, just files. The folders are an artifact solely of the names of the files in the zip.

Put a zero-length file in the empty folders so that file will be included in the zip. Which will therefore have the folder name.
