Make [C-c C-o] open link to auto create non-existing directory

I found Emacs + Org-mode can not automatically create non-existing directory.

For example:

When I create a link [[file:Linux/Linux.org]], but this path does not exist.
When I open this link with [C-c C-o]. Emacs shows into:
    Use [M-x make-directory RET RET] to create the directory and its parents
    Setting current directory: no such file or directory,
    /home/chrsi/Org/Wiki/Linux/

Is it possible make Org auto create non-existing directory ?

Org behaves like Emacs here: in Emacs, if you find a file in a
directory that does not exist, you get the same warning.

A solution to automatically create the directory (with maybe just
a confirmation step) would be needed for Emacs, not just for Org.

Or is your need very specific to Org?
