I can confirm that everything except 314902 (see comment) is fixed/successfully 
worked around. I like! :)
I hope you can find the cause for 314902 (it's actually easily reproducible, 
tagging works only once for each instance of Files).
Do you have any ideas for 316158 yet, and is it possible to compile Nepomuk 
with taglib to fix 317460?

What would be test cases for the theme? Where might it break?

Agreed. There are still three serious bugs around, but you've been driving the 
number down impressively quickly :)

I didn't see the top bar disappear yet. How did you trigger that?
You can see that Files wasn't made for portrait, but I think it works okay for 
now. I think people will use portrait mostly for reading long text and use 
landscape for everything else, so even in its current state it's better than 
nothing. Maybe we should call it "experimental" ;)

I'm testing away, but one tester is probably not enough to ensure good 
quality. Therefore I hope that others will test, too!

I guess we'll need more time to fix the remaining blockers, then, unless you fix 
them all on Monday night ;)
