Feature Request: Image/Stories Folders

Manila is a great CMS/Bloging tool. But a Manila Site can start to get out of hand after a year or 2. One of the reasons is that images and stories are stores in chronological order under the respective headings. For instance if you click on Pictures, you get a chronological list of all the image that you have uploaded to your site. This can make finding a particular image or story a real hassle, especially for sitse with 4000+ items in their website. Some people I know just upload a new version of an image they think they have already uploaded cause it's easier to do that then to go hunting for it.

I would like to see some way to give context to each Item in a manila site. I suggest the folder metaphor, since everyone understands that by now. I wouls like there to be a method for a Manila users to create folders and then designate which folder a picture or story should be associated with.


Possible Solution

It doesn't have to be folder... it could be Categories

A more ambitious solution would be to add even more management capabilities, like Delete and the ability to move multiple items.
