Invalid values in the XML db should, of course, be handled some way.
In my TODO.

This is because KPA's standard category names were changed after the SQL 
DB code was done. Also in my TODO.

This is probably because of those 12 images having invalid Tokens data. 
Could you check out if those have entrys somewhere in the SQL db?
SELECT * FROM media WHERE filename IN 
('yourfilename1.jpg', 'yourfilename2.jpg');

Cool, that's nice to hear. :)

You could try those search querys for the quick search (from the mysql 
command line tool).

Query line can be found from my post here:

Maybe I'll bug you to test something else later when the backend code 
has some process again. ;-)

Thanks!
