But having to indexing daemon? People already compain about having one of them 
eating up their resources.

Perhaps we could get a two fold strategy. Bring in nepomuk for all the 
semantic features that do not require (strigi?) the indexing demon like 
tagging, rating etc.

And than have a look if we could just hide the indexing part under a layer.

Or am i wrong and nepomuk does not include the indexing part by default?
