I guess that adding a DNLA interface would require more logic. DNLA is based on
top of a Universal Plug and Play and allows to access and export media data.
Probably digikam can provide a plugin for an existing DNLA software. 

On the other hand the DLNA interface provides access to the media but as far as
I can see, it not necessarily establishes a wide user interface, e.g. to
defines queries. So I guess that another way could be that digikam could
interface DNLA by creating a plugin which for each already defined query
exports a "virtual album", i.e. without creating a folder on filesystem with
links to the images.

Having a folder with links would have the benefit that this is based on well
proven OS mechanism and visible to all other kinds of applications.
