[digiKam-users] Feature request for filtering

In the filters section  and the tags Filter, would it be possible to 
have three modes of selection, rather than the current two.
Not selected - as now with an empty box
Selected         - as now with a tick - does as now and selects those 
images.
Exclude           - new with a X.  if this is the marked option, it 
means that this tag is excluded from those images filtered if the item 
has this tag mark.

This would require two forms of selection, ie a tristate button, not 
sure if Digikam supports such things. If it does not support such things 
then perhaps a exlude tags filter field would be required.

This would make looking for those items which you have not tagged 
correctly so much easier, because you could exclude all those which are 
already tagged correctly for your search and quickly spot those images 
which you should have tagged and tag them. You would also know you have 
correctly tagged an image because once tagged correctly it would vanish 
from the current view.

This is similar to the not labels filters filter, which is really helpful.
