Create Category for Photos not in any Albums

We have a category for Photo Albums. Can we please add another category "Uncategorized" or "Not in Any Album" smart folder/filter? I currently transfer and back-up albums on an album level as this keeps my back-up more organized.


Rationale: I manage and back up my photos on an album-by-album basis to keep my storage organized. However, it is easy to miss individual photos that bypass normal album creation - such as media saved from WhatsApp, downloaded from the web, or taken on the fly.


Problem: Because my backup workflow relies on albums, any photo not explicitly assigned to an album gets left behind and is vulnerable to data loss. While existing filters (like timeframes or facial recognition) exist, manually sorting through a massive, multi-gigabyte library to find unassigned photos is highly inefficient.


The win: Introducing a smart category or filter for "Photos not in any album." This would allow users to quickly identify "orphaned" media, bulk-assign them to the correct albums. After assigning "uncategorized" photos into albums, I can then complete their backups with 100% confidence that no data is missing :)
