I see "id's" listed in the journalctl messages, the 5714849124383745 and
5643818955242497 in Comment 2 above...

I was assuming these were hashes of the filename or something in combination
with a modification time but it seems that they are a construct of the dev
number and inode.

I assume the "renaming" messages appear because baloo has missed the inotify
changes and, after having woken up, discovered that a file it thought it knew
about is really a different file. So, not so much "detecting" a rename but
realising that one has happened.

What I don't know is whether this is bad(tm)

(Thanks for the conversation, it helps...)
