Yes, this issue is still valid. With 2.x have more options to write metadata
(to images in album, to selected images) but still first we have to go to
preferences check/uncheck writing various metadata.

We still need option to decide if metadata should be written immediately after
assigning or only manually. 

Also we need to remember to which images we made changes (if we don't want to
synchronize whole collection). So it would be nice if database has some
property to track which images needs to synchronize metadata.

I also had bad experience using all collection metadata synchronize - all
images in collection were affected - even those which were synchronized with
database. It's quite bad because updating all images in collection brings a
danger of some corruption, it's time consuming and also creates problem with
incremental&differential backups.
