[gthumb-list] Import to folder in 2.12?

[Derek Chen-Becker <gthumb chen-becker org>]

Hi,
    I've just upgraded from gThumb 2.10.x to 2.12 (via Git) and one
thing that I can't figure out is image import. In 2.10 I could set a
base folder and then the import would automatically create a new folder
based on the "event name" that I put in. In 2.12 gThumb seems to want to
dump all of my images into one folder and then use a catalog to organize
them out by event name. I have something on the order of 22k images and
one reason I have always loved gThumb is that it made it so simple to
import a set of pictures into their own folder. I can still do it with
2.12 but it's tedious. I have to create the folder before I import, in
the import go through the file selection dialog to find that folder, and
then import everything. I've been trying to use this for the past month
and at this point I'm giving up. I just manually mount the camera, copy
the images I want and then create the folder where I want them (all in
Nautilus). Please, please tell me I'm missing some preference somewhere
that would give me the old behavior. I'm very seriously considering
downgrading to 2.10 just to get this back :(

Thanks,

Derek
