chance to build Shotwell from trunk, test and help find bugs!

I also did some quick testing to see how non-BMP unicode chars are handled when uploading to the various hosting serivces.

My little TCs where "tag123𝒞𝒞𝒞456"", "title123𝒞𝒞𝒞456", "album123𝒞𝒞𝒞456" where the non-BMP char was U+01D49E mathematical script capital C char. You can copy this char from here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5567249/what-are-the-most-common-non-bmp-unicode-characters-in-actual-use

* flickr drops the non-BMP chars from both titles and tags.

* picasaweb never shows tags (not even plain ASCII tags), even though the website has a section for "Tags". However, picasaweb correctly shows non-BMP chars in title and album name though.

* piwigo truncates non-BNP chars from the album name / title / tag and also drops all normal chars that comes after the non-BMP chars.


IMO, it would be very useful if some chineese/japanese person could test this a bit more, and see if they can use their native language in titles, tags and album names.
