feature request: download the whole album as zip #30

Hi,

it would be great to have a download link for the whole album as zip.

I can see it's a common use case. As I understand, the album needs to be zipped when the script is run because the site is static. It might take some time depending on the size of the album; creating zip file isn't always very fast. If new photos are added it may need to detect that the zip file is outdated and rezip the album, or always rezip everything.

Shameless plug, depending on your use case, you might also want to check out the zip api we provide. It allows you to create zip file on the fly and streaming it to users.
