Add a bookmark tab that allows you to copy or move files with one click to a bookmarked destination

i can provide a screenshot of the Geeqie sort manager if needed

Thanks. Can you provide a quick explanation of what this feature does, and how it's advantageous to have? We might be able to find a way to provide the same functionality with what Gwenview already has.

its a one click way to copy or move that doesnt require dialog boxes when sorting to fixed locations with custom names, its helpful when having to work with large amounts of pictures to be able to sort them quickly to other image folders that are not relevant when not working with pictures

since the locations are fixed you dont need to wait for an external drive to spin up or a network drive to respond when simply opening a file dialog to copy or move to a local internal drive

in the bottom there is a quick undo buttom in case you made a mistake

if you have a folder of a thousand family photos you want to sort by who is in the picture

or if you recovered files from a dying drive and want to sort many pictures it just saves time

it makes managing image collection simpler

its very much like a file tag but uses a drive location as the common destination

Thanks for the explanation! I can see how that would be useful.
