If you have side cars you are fine…I don’t even use the database. I just use an option called memory which uses a virtual database each time populated by whatever files I want to edit. I don’t do a lot of global DAM I just edit my files in their folder structure so I don’t bother to maintain a database…at least the library database .
Also there is an equally small (I am not sure if any one mentioned it) arrow top right with a folder history so you can leverage that to some extent as well.
