Archeology going on :D

I support this idea, with slight modifications:
Provide all options in the album creation/modification dialog and remember the
one that was last chosen. There can still be a setting for automatically added
albums (i.e. picked up by scanning), but I think there should be a direct
choice in the dialog. No need to set it again if you don't want to, as it
remembers the previous choice. Otherwise one has to know about some option
hidden in the configuration, that's not good user experience.

Changing the dates retrospectively could be a maintenance option, but certainly
can't happen automatically. This violates the "least surprising and invasive
behaviour" principle (which I just made up). Changing the users data
automatically due to a new feature is never an option in my opinion.
