NOOOOOOOO :-) I agree that the day-based events are a bit fine grained sometimes, but it is easier to merge multiple events (it is trivial to be exact) rather than to fish out correct photos out of one mega-event (err, did I take that tree picture in Rome or Barcelona again? :-)) What would be sensible is to have an option that creates one event per import, a "film roll" as some programs call it, I believe. But other than than I am happy with the way it is. If you know that you were in Barcelona from Nov 10-Nov 30, just select those 20 events and click on merge. Done. I agree that folder-based events would also make sense for those of us who come from the old world of folder-based organization :-). So either per: date, import, or folder, but not a mega-incoming event please :).
