First off, no worries. The perception and description of a bug grows and
changes with time. That should be expected...

If you were doing "content indexing" and editing a file (that might happen if
you were changing embedded tags in an MP3 or JPG), then baloo would need to
open the file, read the metadata and index it.

With 'xattr', the info is "filesystem metadata", akin to the file modification
time. Baloo just picks this up and you won't see the file appearing in
"balooctl monitor". The good news is that you can make use of tags even if you
are not doing content indexing...

What does "balooshow -x your-tagged-file.txt" give you? Do you get any (some?
all?) details?
