Write / read file from folder in the game directory

Could there be a possibility to write to / read from folder in game directory?
Let's say I want to save some text files created by the game, but not in the same directory which the games executable is in but the folder called "Texts" in that directory.
I think this would be very nice addition, because the game folders could be made more clear by this. :)

Is there some reason for that this isn't possible?

Mainly security purposes. Of course being able to access directories strictly to where the exe is in would be a great addition!Some games will get messy because it must all be in the same folder... especially I like to create my own file types and editors so user can customize things in the game :O
