Ok I got the situation sorted, kind of. I was able to confirm that 100% of
the items I had on my Desktop had been transferred to the datastore,
sometimes twice with _1 added to the filenames. Shotwell automatically
added the remaining to the library, sometimes the originals and sometimes
the _1-files.

I removed all the _1-files manually and maybe 50% disappeared from the
library.

Then removed them from missing files.

Now the library is stable, watch does not find any new items but the 50% I
manually deleted won't get re-added again. This is similar to another mail
thread I have on this ML, with lots of items missing in my Shotwell DB but
which are present in the datastore.
