inode numbers might be useful as an alternative (as well as obviously 
useful for finding duplicates that are hard links of each other or 
duplicates that result from symlink weirdness).  Really, I just wish that 
the filesystem contained a mapping of sha1_hash=>filename so that F-spot 
could just ask, "Hey, where'd the file with sha1_hash xxx go?" and get a 
proper answer.

Maybe this is something that the desktop search programs can help with?
