The bug

I do not know if this counts as a bug but atleast I thinks its very counterintuitive.

I'm going through the process of sorting through my photos to find out which one's I want to keep and which one's can be deleted. To do this I do a search for photos that are not currently in an album and select the photo's that I want to keep. When I have selected all photo's for an album I create the album by clicking the + button and typing in a new album name. After the photo has been added to the album it disappears from the overview because ofcourse it ofcourse now no longer is 'not in an album'. However the photo is still selected. When I now for instance select photo's for deletion and press the delete button, the photo's I just added to an album will also be deleted.

To me this is very confusing and counterintuitive and I think it would be more logical to unselect photo's which are no longer part of your current overview anymore to prevent this from happening
