Lots of people would like to be able to tag their images like they can 
do with other software like Digikam or KPhotoAlbum. I didn't want to add 
yet-another-tag-database to Gwenview, but Nepomuk is going to be KDE 
wide: if you assign a tag or a comment to an image in Gwenview, you will 
be able to find this tag and comment in Dolphin too, as well as in any 
other software supporting Nepomuk.

In fact, it's done. I implemented this yesterday.

Hum... yes you are right, I will add KIPI to the list. I need to check 
the KDE4 porting status, I think it's ported but I am not sure a KDE4 
version has been released (Angelo?).
