While having some sort of hierarchical zoom (from years, to months, to days) 
would be nice. I also find it tremendously useful to have a real zoom (that is, 
make thumbnails larger or smaller) in Calendar mode.  There are many days when 
I've taken hundreds to 1-2 thousand images in a single day.  Being able to zoom 
out allows me to see groups of photos, and then I can narrow in more closely on 
the ones I actually want to look at.

Another use case is if I'm searching for a single particular photo, and I know 
"about when" I shot it.  If I know the main color of the image, I can easily 
skip over large batches of images that are the wrong color, and then zoom in 
when I need to see more details to discriminate.
