k. I misunderstood the issue then.  I don't think it would be  
confusing for a user the way it operates now.  It's basically just a  
batch import script.  Personally, I wouldn't have any expectation as  
to auto-detection of gallery names unless I use the provided --gallery  
or --slug switches...but maybe I'm misunderstanding something or not a  
typical user ;)

I'm not _against_ something here, but don't have any bright ideas that  
would catch every use case either.  For example it's not unrealistic  
for a single user to have multiple galleries with the same name placed  
under different parents so even if we assumed folder_name ==  
gallery_name we could still have collisions that would need to be  
resolved via prompts in the script.

Thanks,
mike
