--- Comment #11 from Andrew <photo at fritztech.com> ---
Thank you Drew! 

I love digikam, but this design flaw is the #1 frustration for me managing my
archive. Photos need individual locations, captions and descriptions and to
efficiently manage photos (like a professional with power of open source), that
meta-data should be editable directly on the panel just like the tags and other
meta-data.

Templates are NOT a workable solution since every photo can (an usually does)
have a distinct set of location and description data. The "edit all metadata"
dialog is a DISASTER for managing more than a trivial small set of photos.
Returning from a shoot, I might add 100 to 1000 photos and in many cases there
are 10 to 100 locations that are needed. 

I use digikam on 3 different operating systems: Linux (Ubuntu), Windows and
OSX. This is not a platform specific bug, but a design flaw in Digikam.
