To repeat what @tmsrxzar said with more detail, you can do this, but just don't link to the top-most "Shows" directory.
Jellyfin expects all sub-folders to be an entry for a show or movie.
In shows, create all directories (A through Z). Then in Jellyfin when creating or modifying a library, link to all the sub-directories instead of the top-most "Shows" directory.
This way, you can have a library named "Shows" and it will have access to all the sub-directories.
This would just add more complexity to how Jellyfin handles this sort of thing.

Any directories in square brackets are not directly scraped, but instead the scraper recognizes that as a directory "group" and then proceeds to process all directories below it. Effectively, the [dirs] are ignored by the scraper and it just moves down a level to continue its activities.Since you can already achieve this by just doing what both me and @tmsrxzar stated, this functionality isn't needed.
So in my use case the top-level directories would be [A], [B], [C], etc. But they could also be [anything else you want], [etc], and then shows live directly under those dirs.
