Feature Request: Search by Picture #5379

what does that mean in this context? Searching by the picture's filesystem filename?

AI search similar pictures.. when I have a document with recipes.. pasting a new picture would suggest similar ones..

Even further.. when I am adding a new picture to document.. it will show suggestions of similar pictures around it.. then "auto-pilot" mode that generates infinite mindmap around initial input based on results found it internet.. not infinite but possibly upto x300 times scaling previous pictures when adding new ones.. then "exploration" mode to scroll into the spiral and jump-in between linked points.. perhaps represented as git commits.. might sound too crazy but makes sense to me.. will try to open PR.. just feels like more natural way to explore The Internet rather than traditional browser applications..

AI searching or OCRing images is a bit out of scope for now. Making images searchable based on filename or metadata is indeed more feasible.
