But tags should somehow be written down somewhere in a standard place,
so that you can use the same photos in different applications and the
info you set up in one is available to the other.
I hate it when an application tries to "lock me in" by keeping the data
in a proprietary format.
I think Shotwell should aim to make its database fully redundant, like
a cache, in the sense that it can be reconstructed from the data
in Pictures.
