Description Joel Ruprecht 2016-12-29 20:19:09 UTC 
I am tagging a large number of wildlife photos in which I need to identify the number of individuals of each species in each photo. I currently have a tag hierarchy similar to the reduced version below, in which I tag the species, then the number of individuals of that species in each photo:

-species 1
  -1 individual
  -2 individuals
  -...
  -50 individuals
-species 2
  -1 individual
  -2 individuals
  -...
  -50 individuals
etc...

It is very cumbersome to have so many tags for the number of individuals of each species because the tag tree becomes extremely large. I suggest an option for manual entry of numbers below a root tag.

Then one could do something like this:

-species 1
  - (manual entry of a number)
-species 2
  - (manual entry of a number)
etc...

This would greatly streamline the tagging process for users requiring to change the number of objects below a root tag in each photo without having a huge list of tags.

Thanks for the consideration, and all the great work on this software!
