[Kde-imaging] KIPI Import plugin for web service

[Luka Renko]

Hello,

After completing SmugMug export plugin, I would like to add Import 
functionality for SmugMug to KIPI.
 
Idea is that user could select SmugMug albums, his/hers or from other users 
and that all images would be downloaded to specific local directory.

As KIPI works with collections, it looks like I would need to offer to user 
the target directory my listing all collections and then get destination 
directory through colection->uploadPath(). But I am not sure how user could 
create new folder/album for download. 
Do I understand it correctly, that there is no way to add new 
collection/album/folder through KIPI?
For Digikam, I could offer just regular create directory folder on the right 
starting path (root of digikam photos), and then digikam would pick this 
photos (autodetect) when they would appear in this folder. But this does not 
seems like universal solution.

Also, there is no way for KIPI plugin to update name/comment of image 
collection (for example with name/comment from SmugMug album)?

Regards,
Luka
