Is there > something I've missed here? Do you mean a multi-selection when browsing by tag? I've briefly played with the idea at some point, but it wasn't a high priority back then. I guess I wasn't sure whether hard-coding the multi-selection as AND or OR combination would be self-explaining, or something along those lines. Revisiting this decision, I would now think that hard-coding an OR combination as you suggested would be a natural fit. I think this shouldn't be too hard to implement... The second part "selecting everything at once" would probably need some consideration, but I think that should not be rocket-science either. Cheers, Johannes
