           Summary: Tag hierarchy not preserved when exporting metadata to
                    IPTC
           Product: digikam
           Version: 1.9.0
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Tags
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: swami.kevala at ishafoundation.org


Version:           1.9.0
OS:                Linux

After tagging my images with a two-level tag (e.g. Family/John), I run the 
Tools -> 'write metadata to all images' function. (Under the
Configure/Metadata/Common Metadata Actions settings I have checked "Save image
tags as "Keywords" tags in metadata embedded in files")

Now when I go to Image -> Metadata -> Edit IPTC, I notice that it has stored
two separate keywords, "Family" and "John", side by side. This is not what I
want. I want it to store a single keyword "Family.John" or "Family/John".

And when I read the metadata back from the images, I want the tag hierarchy to
be recreated.
