[FEAT] search by date

Post by pierre.chepelov »

I couldn't find in the Category Walker, and I wonder if there is, a "search by death [or birth, or first publication] date" function.
IMHO it would be very useful!

It would be useful, but it would be complicated for publication dates.

I didn't think about each score's publication date, only the work page's |Year of First Publication= field.

We would have to work out Russian dates as well. They didn't switch to the Gregorian calender until 1917. We don't even know when a lot of Russian artists were born. Nijinsky for instance...
