I love the explanation of medial filenames and the path in your Import GEDCOM with media files article. I'm wondering if you'd consider an additional related feature. I'd like to add a photo of someone without having to update the data or the GEDCOM file.

For example, if I simply add a photo to my media folder with the file name "I4568.jpg", your app would automatically "attach" it to the individual with that ID number. I'm figuring that since that number is unique for each person, it should work. This way, I could spend some time creating photos for a bunch of people and then simply add them to the media folder; no need to update the data.

Further, if this is possible, you could also allow multiple such images by recognizing filenames like "I4568-a.jpg", "I4568-dhe.jpg", just any letters after the ID number. Or any convention that you feel would work well.

This is the kind of feature that would make the app worth a purchase of $20 for me. Thank you.
