Selecting galleries and groups for image posting

Hi,

I've been playing with og_galleries, trying to see how it works currently and whether or not I'll be able to use it for a site I'm updating, and I've got a few usability questions.

Question 1:
When you currently post a new image you need to select which gallery of which group to place the image in. The galleries part of the post form lists all the groups and associated galleries that this user can post to. In my case I have five groups, each with a gallery, for a particular user. The selection looks something like this:

  Galleries
Select galleries to display this node in. Make sure you check the right boxes above to make it visible to the relevant groups.

GroupA Galleries:
<none>
Main

GroupB Galleries:
<none>
Main

GroupC Galleries:
<none>
Main

GroupD Galleries:
<none>
Main

GroupE Galleries:
<none>
Main

My concern is that even with only five groups the post form starts to look pretty big and intimidating. Imagine if you had 10, 15, 20 or more groups that a user had access to. In our case we'd be having "instructor" users that would have access to most of the groups on the site.

I see that a vocabulary is created for each gallery by og_galleries, so vocabs called "GroupA Galleries", "GroupB Galleries", "GroupC Galleries", "GroupD Galleries", "GroupE Galleries" are created and "Main" is listed as a term in each vocabulary, where "Main" refers to the default gallery in the group. My question is that instead of having a vocabulary for each group, could you have a single "Group Galleries" vocabulary that included the terms "GroupA Gallery", "GroupB Gallery", "GroupC Gallery", etc. and then any other sub-galleries as subterms under each? This way it could all be selected in a single list rather than having to be selected in X different ones, looking a bit like this:

  Galleries
Select galleries to display this node in. Make sure you check the right boxes above to make it visible to the relevant groups.

Group Galleries:
GroupA Gallery
--SubGallery1
--SubGallery2
GroupB Gallery
--SubGallery1
GroupCGallery
--SubGallery1
--SubGallery2

Or am I not correctly understanding how you need to do this to make it work with the views module?

Question 2:
When you do want to post photos to more than one gallery, you have to make two selections, select all the galleries in the Galleries section of the post form, and then open up the Groups section of the form and select all the appropriate groups. Is there any way to make it so that when you select the gallery, the gid for that gallery is also assigned to the image node, so you don't have to make several selections?

Question3:
I've been looking at breadcrumbs too (with perhaps a related issue) and am not sure how the breadcrumbs should work when an image is crossposted to multiple galleries and groups. Right now a breadcrumb for just one of the galleries is shown, and not necessarily representing the path that a user took to get to the image. Ideally the breadcrumbs would remember what path was taken to get to the image, but I have no idea if that is possible... I imagine other modules that allow multiple terms or vocabularies for a node have to deal with this as well.

Any ways, thanks again for all your great work! I'm still getting my head wrapped around taxonomies and drupal, so I apologize for anything obvious that I may have missed!
