           Summary: Great improvements that could be made
           Product: digikam
           Version: 0.8.0-beta2
          Platform: Slackware Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: iuri.matias gmail com


Version:           0.8.0-beta2 (using KDE KDE 3.4.2)
Installed from:    Slackware Packages

when, a user has photos in *diferent* folders digikam copies the photos for the main folder: this is quite bad/anoying specially if the user has issues with diskspace, or changes/deletes the photo with amarok (and the change isnt reflected by digikam).
Suggestion: digikam, could just organize the photos without having to copy them and have its own internal organized indepedent of physical folders , just like amarok organizes mp3 without having to copy them to its own folder, it just keeps track of the computer folders we specify have mp3, but has its own organization.


the tags only show the photos associated with the tag in each folder (which makes sense). however when the user is in a *main* folder, none of the photos associated with the tag *located in the subfolders* showup.
Example: i have a photo album called "Vacations" and in it i have two subfolders called "Mexico" and "Hawai", some photos in both photos have the tag "beach" associated with it. my sugestion is that, when  i click in the "Vacations" folder and select the "beach" tag, both photos of "Mexico" and "Hawai" folders that have this tag associated show up.


my third suggestion would be that the search be in the top, always visible. similar to (again) amarok, juk, etc...
