The feature

High-level: Ability to move/copy photos from one local directory to another local directory for On this device photos/videos in the phone itself.

Typically I've my camera set up for automatic backup via immich, but I also receive a lot of images from other people (Messages, Whatsapp, Quick Share, Downloads, email attachments etc.). Not all received images are worth keeping as there's a lot of clutters with GIFs, stickers, random downloads etc.
To deal with this, I've also created a local directory called "ReceivedMedia" which is configured to automatically backup to immich. And I actively go and move all the images that I want to backup, from all different directories for various sources to this "ReceivedMedia" directory.
Right now Immich only provides Share, Trash, Upload in the Library > On this device category. So I've to fall back to Google Photos which provides Move to folder and Copy to folder options as well.

It'll be good to add Move to folder and Copy to folder abilities in the immich app as well.
