Instead of cluttering up bugzilla, I'll state here that the AND
operator sounds most logical for people and keywords, but not for
places or events. The reason is that a photo cannot be in two places
at once- so the OR operator is logical. Maybe top-level tags could be
assigned (by the user) to default to AND or OR internally? I think
that searches across top-level tags should be AND.
Wasn't it you who said you didn't want the app to do anything
automatically for you? :-)
I think we need to make it easy for the user to decide whether each term
should be AND/OR and not try to guess which one they want. I've added a
number of top level tags, and I wouldn't always want 'AND' to be used
across them.
I think it would be confusing to have different behaviour depending on
what top level category the tags are in. If you use the text based
searching (where you type the names of the tags), you might not even
know what the top level category is...
