OK I can see how to get this menu (it was a bit confusing because 
there's a 'Settings' item on the menubar which is just the same as in 
the main DigiKam window!) and I can specify a custom filename format (I 
think [date:"yyyyMMdd_hhmmss"]_[file]{lower}.[ext]{lower} should do what 
I want) but I can't find a way to specify my destination album: if I use 
the [date:"yyyyMMdd"] format in my Date-based sub-album specification it 
shows that it would come out as
    Ex: [26ate:"19681226"]
which is not what I want!

Am I missing something or is DigiKam unable to do custom formats in the 
destination album specification?
