Move library outside data folder

Currently I have this storage template:
{{filetypefull}}/{{y}}/{{MM}}/{{filename}}

That results in paths like this:
UPLOAD_LOCATION/library/user/IMAGE/2022/02/IMAGE_56437.jpg

I however can't change anything before IMAGE using storage templates. I would like to move the entire library folder to a completely different path on my system.

Right now I'm running Immich in Docker on TrueNAS Scale 25.04 and I have my datasets setup like this:

- Docker
- - Immich
- Data
- - User
- - - Images

Under the Docker dataset I like to save the configuration files, databases etc for my containers. But my data I like to keep separated under a different dataset as you can see. As Immich works out of the box I can't separate the uploaded images and all of Immich configs and metadata. So I have to choose do I keep everything Immich under my Docker dataset or my Data dataset.

Is it possible to move just the library folder over to the Data dataset and keep everything else under the Docker dataset?
