hi,

That is more a new feature than a fix.

The orginal purpose of the script is to reflect strictly the structure of the
tags. What I propose here is to translate user thinking which typically combine
many tags structure.

Typically the structure is organized as you describe it:
- Place
-- France

People
-- Peter
-- Paul

Date (even if most of time not manage as tag structure but exif data)

If you are sticking to this logic it is very difficult to find all pictures you
have of Peter & Paul taken in France in 2004 just by browsing independantly if
you thing Paul, Peter, France first.

This is what my patch propose:
People
-- Peter
--- _all => All pictures of Peter
--- Date => All pictures of Peter classified by dates
---- 2004
----- _all => All pictures of Peter in 2004
----- People
------ _all => All pictures of Peter in 2004 with some other People
------ Paul
------- _all => All pictures of Peter in 2004 with Paul
------- Places
------- _all => All pictures of Peter in 2004 with Paul within a specific Place
------- France
-------- _all => All pictures of Peter in 2004 with Paul in France

This way it is straight forward from the hierarchy to generate a jalbum on a
specific topic (here being all pictures of Peter and paul together taken in
France in 2004).

In addtion this is then straight forward to export the structure in a upnp
server that support softlink file system wihtout messing around tag structure
compatible with the upnp server installed.
