That will depend on the developers. As they are unpaid volunteers, no 
guarantees. Try filing a wish on KDE Bugzilla.

Where do you see that option? I don't seem to have that available.

When I look at search results, the results are grouped by directory, with the

Try (from the menu bar) "View"->"Group Images"->"By Album".
