Yes, that option would be great!
My reason: In 99,99% my Albums only contain JPGs. So I do
all album organisation in Digikam.

Doing this, you can fall for the following trap: Lets say
you have an album with 5 JPGs and one text file. You decide
to reorganice your Images and move the 5 JPGs in another
album. After that, your album in Digikam looks empty. So you
might just delete it. But this will delete your text file
without any warning!

There is a wish for the warning in the bugtracker.

(If you think, this warning would be usefull, you can vote
for it ;)


I created another bug at BKO for the more general wish
mentioned in this thread:

 "Option to show files of all MIME-Types in album view"

(You are invited to vote for this bug too, if you think it
is valuable. ;)

I quoted Jean-François Rabasse and Ben Staude in this bug. I
hope this is ok for you two.
