Sorry for harping on, but I'm offering this in the way of a sort
of requirements specification or set of use cases to make it
clear what feature I am wishing for. Hopefully, this will make it
easier for the developers to assess the request and critique it.
If I had to set priorities (according to my own biases), I would
choose them in this order:
1. Fix the problems where the tree gets collapsed for no good
reason. There are open bug reports for the tree collapsing
when switching back from "Tags already assigned" and for some
other operations. That would at least allow the current,
manually set state to be preserved.
2. Fix the lack of options to collapse or expand nodes in the
trees. For example if I might have branches of my tag tree
expanded like this:
Places
Australia
Sydney
Melbourne
Spain
Barcelona
Madrid
Seville
Germany
Berlin
Munich
Now, if I want to tag some photos that I took in Germany,
I would like to collapse Australia and Spain to make the
tree more compact. I would like to click on "Places" and
choose "Collapse -> Children" to get this tree:
Places
Australia
Spain
Germany
Then I can just expand the child tags of "Germany". Once
there are more than about three country tags (and I have
more than that) this is much easier than individually
collapsing all of the country tags that are not relevant
to my current tagging session.
3. Allow the expanded and collapsed state of the tree to be
saved. A first iteration might just allow one saved state.
Later iterations might add support for named states.
4. Support the hide/show functionality.
5. Expand this functionality to all trees.
