Yes Andreas, that's what I've written in comment #5!
Currently, digikam relies on KDE (Solid, if I'm not mistaken) to
supply volume id which must identify the volume. I propose to use such
volumeid as a hint at most and ask a user to supply correct local
path, probably relying on this hint. UUID I've mentioned is just a
random string *generated* by digikam itself.

You give an important example of volumeid change as a result of
OS/library update. This is one more reason to avoid relying on it.
