Allow moving files to parent directory (or allow use of absolute paths)
I'd like to be able to include the ".." within a file path rule to allow for moving folders from one folder hierarchy to different folder hierarchy -- or specify the whole path.
Yes, I recognize that this would place the moved locations of the files OUTSIDE the current directory, but that's the idea -- moving from an "unsorted" to "sorted" folder (and the unsorted pile gets smaller and smaller.)
Usecase:
All new music gets put in a folder called "C:\freshRips"
Bliss monitors freshRips with a rule to save all music (after cover art has been applied, tags have been updated, etc) to "C:\musicLibrary<genre name>/<album artist>-<year>-<album name>/ etc etc"
The rule would look like: ../musicLibrary/<genre name>/<album artist>-<year>-<album name>/<tracknumber>?|<tracknumber:auto>-|<track name>.
Two reasons for asking:
1) I'm in the midst of sorting a large library, and find it much easier to do it in small "batches" because Bliss will sometimes get hung up on a given file, and it's easier to find the problem in a dozen albums than 1,000 albums, and it decreases full re-scan time
2) Once my music is sorted in the structure I like and properly tagged, I'm likely never going to move it around. In this case, there's no use in Bliss constantly monitoring a huge directory. It'd be less resource intensive for it to just monitor the "freshRips" folder and move them along to the larger library as new music comes in.

I might merge these into this idea, if you agree?
