Hi Mario, Thank you! You should also, certainly, chat with the darktable developers (IRC?) before going too far. They've been clear in the past that they don't want someone putting in lots of work on a feature if they don't think it'll make it in, or make it in in the initial form. I'd be curious as to their thoughts on how custom image sorting could work... Dan
