A more sophisticated query system would be interesting.
For example if I want to see every picture with Joseph in it, that's really easy. But what if I'd like to share those with Joseph along with the albums he's in?
Similar to that would be a query by location and person. Or a query that includes two people.
I believe Piwigo had the first feature you mention. Actually, there are quite a few things from Piwigo I’d love to see implemented in Immich. One that was pretty unique was designating an image as the back of another one, for scanned files. Niche, but really useful in those cases.
