Such album format is actually quite similar to what the app does, its trivial to add an option to allow that.
Another problem I have with metadata (usually while dealing with times), its that some cameras include the timezone, which the app isn't parsing right now, but that means that a photo can get in a previous/next month.
> some times "sort by date" doesn't work
Actually, I forget to mention in the README that the app sets the last modified time to match the metadata date, so that sorting potentially works again.
