Legacy Un Categorized Games

[Ozzy47]

When a game is imported that does not have a category assigned with it where does it go?

With the implementation of games manager with beta v9 I can now move games as I wish, but it would be nice for games that do not have a category assigned at import to go to a default category like Unsorted, so I could click on the games link in that category, and switch the category from there. as it is now you have to go to manage games and select newest, but if I install 100's of games in a day, all that need different categories, I could see it being difficult to get them all where I want them.

I know if I import 25 games that need cat "A" and 42 games that need cat "B" I could just select 25 or 42 in the per page, but if their was a dropdown option in the sort colum for Un Categorized Games that would be much simpler.

Games can belong to 0+ categories (vs exactly 1), so, games not in a category are only findable when you aren't selecting against a category.
I'm not going to designate a default category nor assign any default category during import (aside from matching existing/adding new) as that complicates the import process.

You have a mildly valid request of being able to find such games though, so perhaps ill add a clickable tag for uncategorized in the manage games section.

That would be excellent, as once the arcade is in full force, I will be adding 10,000 plus games from IPB, and that would make it alot easier for me

with the split for dedicated categories row, i can add one for None when there arent any, and clicking that will do the trick
