I think this is a good solution. This option should be disabled by default
to not affect the normal usage of KDE and Nepomuk. Then, the users that want
comments embeded into their images can select this option (like me). With
this, we have the two advantatges of using Nepomuk that you explained, and
the other ones too.

Don't you like the comment panel like was in Gwenview 1.4? I'd like it very
much due to quickness of adding comments.

Great. But I just though that if the two comments (nepomuk and jpeg) are
equal, you can avoid showing both. Because if I add a comment to an image
with the option we are talking about activated and it is saved in two places
(most of users won't be aware of this), I wouldn't want to see my comment
duplicated in the slideshow. Overmore, if there are three possible places to
save a comment in a jpeg file, we can have the same comment four times,
haven't it?

Best regards,
Jaume
