Hi Yorba team,

First of all, congratulation and thank you very much for your hard work.
Shotwell is an awesome application which still needs a little bit more
options to become close to perfect.

Regularly on websites, or other application on your computer, if you want
to upload / open a picture if they don't support drag&drop or don't have a
shotwell add-on it becomes quite a mission.

Depending on how you've set up how shotwell manage your pictures, you need
to remember the year then the month and sometimes even the day. To be left
with not named properly pictures.

How much easier would that be to have shotwell importing your pictures and
saving them in the *Pictures* folder, creating a new folder named after the
event (shotwell requesting an event name when importing, and displaying the
pictures as per sorted in the folder). Something like it is a mirror of the
folder.

Do you believe it is an option easily created / possible?

English isn't my native language so please ask for more explanations.

Cheers,
