Re: [gthumb-list] importer catalogs

Yes, I understand the idea, and I personally can probably get used to it.

However, some people will be very upset, because gThumb is so nice for manipulating simple folders (whereas F-Spot forces things into albums). They will be annoyed at the use of catalogs when folders would do.

It would be nice to accommodate the folders-only style of workflow too.

Just my 2 cents :-)

 I definitely  agree with this.
Paolo you may want to recall the discussion on this bug:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=431187

The "Custom Subfolder" destination is definitely a feature request from many users.
Users who prefer (like me) the gthumb point of view over the F-spot one.
Every since Roalt's patch (2 years ago) was issued, I only use the trunk version
where the patch was commited.

Like Roalt I feel it should really get released.

Now I'm very excited with the new 2.11.x serie that's in the master branch
and again very grateful for your work Paolo.
IMHO we should get this feature back in the master so it's released.

What do you guys think ?

Cheers,
Matthias
