Best Practices for Image Categories?

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

I'm looking for a best practice (if one exists) on how to categorize images. Currently, you can dump all your photos in files/images, but that can quickly become a mess, to put it politely. Is there a way to create a hierarchical image structure for Drupal?

http://drupal.org/project/filefield_paths provides support for token-based templates for file uploads. Should work with imagefield, as it is based on filefield.

Human beings shouldn't be poking around in the images directory anyway, but there is a (small) performance advantage to sorting a directory in to a tree -- at least on Unix-based systems.
