Thanks for some inspiration! 😄
After some careful thought, I propose the following new search UI:
Sidebar
folder union - prefix folder path union
folder intersection - prefix folder path intersection
folder exclusion -prefix folder path exclusion (missing currently)
filename union - full file name union (including extension & special chars)
filename intersection - full file name intersection (including extension & special chars)
filename exclusion - full file name exclusion (including extension & special chars)
tags union - tags only union - see below
tags intersection - tags only intersection - see below
tags exclusion - tags only exclusion - see below
magic search - as-you-type file & folder search (maybe tags too?)
Tags
Tags can be optional composed of any combination of the following:
- Auto generated filename tags - clean file names
- Auto generated folder tags - clean folder names
- Manually added tags - user added tags
- File extensions - lowercase file extensions (would be useful for #60)
Tags which are enabled will also affect what shows up in the word cloud. Clicking on a tag will add it to the tag fields instead of the file fields.
This will allow for the current level of excellent filtering, while adding a lot of customisable functionality and makes it easy to implement lots of types of tags, depending on the users needs. 👍
Let me know what you think!

I've tried this out and it's very easy to implement without many changes! 👍 It also adds a lot more context to videos that are sorted well by folders.
One issue though - it basically turns the file filter
into the magic filter
as you're now filtering by both files and folders.
So, do we:
- Only show a generic filter (files and folders) when this feature is enabled.
- Track what tags are from folders, and add them to the folder filter instead. (How do you deal with tags that are present in both? Add them to both filters?)
- Something else I haven't thought of.
😕
PS: It might also be nice to display folder tags separately in the full tag modal, so you can easily remove tags that mark too many files (eg. a root folder than contains a lot of files, but doesn't add much value).

Sorry I hadn't joined in on this deliberation before. Thank you for the PR #64 that improves part of this.
I don't have strong opinions here. I'm tempted to keep a "file only" search for only files. I'm unsure how others use the app, but I meant the "magic" filter to be the catch-all that might be enough for most people.
I also wonder if once we implement manual tagging some of these issues will go away?

I like the idea of having many filters (search bars). We'll have sensible defaults so that when the users install they see ~3 most-useful ones (as far as we can guess), and they can enable the advanced search/filter options from the settings 👍
