Organizing photo/video with rating

I use the following rating meaning in Shotwell:

 rejected = candidate for wastebin

 unrated = have not analyzed this photo yet

 1 = keep and return to reanalyze later and maybe then mark as 'rejected' or '2'

 2 = keep and forget

 3 = keep, needs editing

 4 = keep, do not publish -- this is original photo which was edited but saved as a diffenet image file (e.g. edited via external program and saved as IMG000_edit, so look for _edit image)

 5 = publish finished work: a) perfect out of the camera b) was edited (file has 'edited' suffix or tag)

 flagged = used to mark photos for immediate processing, work in progress

And the following workflow:

Folder tree:
YYYY/YYYY_MM_DD_tag1_tag2.../
    - video
        - edited
    - edited
       

1) Mark ranks, add tags.
2) Edit those marked with '3': mark 'flagged'
3) Export final image as '_edited', mark original as '4', clear flag.
4) Add '_edited' to Shotwell, mark as '5'.
