I separate between the release date and the original release date of an album with the entries 'Date' and 'OriginalDate' in the indexTags property.
When applying the indexValue.yearOnly tag option to Date, it works fine. However, when applying it to OriginalDate, I get a red icon with the following message:
MinimServer: incorrect tag 'OriginalDate' for option 'indexValue.yearOnly' in property 'tagOptions'

Is the indexValue.yearOnly option valid for the Date tag only?

At the moment, this option is limited to the Date tag only. This is because Date is handled specially in various ways (validation and formatting as well as indexing).

To allow indexValue.yearOnly to be applied to other tags, I'd need to do one of the following:

1) Apply all the special processing for Date to any other tags that have the indexValue.yearOnly option

2) Apply the indexValue.yearOnly rule to these other tags, but don't apply any other special processing

I'll think about which of these approaches would work best. Do you have a strong preference between them?
