[Feature Request]: New file "Inbox" #389

Open archer31 opened 3 weeks ago

Checklist

Description

Some other file organization softwares include a file "inbox", a place where new files go so that they can be tagged before joining the rest of the files in the store.

Solution

This could be done by having a default tag of "Inbox" which could be treated like the favorite and archive tags except that new files automatically have this tag applied.

Alternatives

I've been considering this, I think it would end up being pretty beneficial to the tagging workflow. Currently you can search for "untagged" and "empty" entries, but having that extra buffer of an inbox would help in situations where you're not "finished" adding tags or info to an entry before it would no longer turn up in those special searches.

Related to this (and necessary for an inbox) would be the addition of keeping track of when a file was added to your library. "Date Added" could be displayed alongside "Date Created" and "Date Modified" in the preview pane as well.
