I came late to that discussion, so that just few notes. I do not trust any tool saving comments outside commented files and specifically I do not trust KDE semantic tools in this way because of various problems and technological instability. My personal impression, but no, thanks. Good for searching, not for storing extra information.
Yes, I agree absolutely.
For music files I modify ID3 tags in Amarok. There is explicit settings to save those data in the files. It works perfectly. For EXIF comments I use digiKam. I'm not sure what should be the difference between the name and description (apparently some applications deal with it differently),
Name is used instead of the file name, if it exists.
so I keep same text in both. It seems Dolphin (KDE4) is not able to read EXIF comments, but I export photos from digiKam to Piwigo web gallery and another tools and it works there perfectly, so that I'm fine with it.
I have to investigate Digikam, whether it can read without alteration my existing photo directories. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
