You could build a tag hierarchy with "Art Station/Landscape", assuming you are
not downloading the majority from one source. You *can* still search for
"tags:/landscape" and Baloo and Dolphin will give you all the files tagged with
"landscape", independent of parent tags. If you are doing it programatically,
you've an option for change. Otherwise I think at some point you'll get the
look-up failing :-(

Something of a hurdle :-/

I'm not sure what I'd do here, I'd probably start with dumping the existing
tags with "getfattr -dR . > taglist", doing a set of edits and reimport with
setfattr (and repeat) The reimport is an overwrite.

One "heads up", be careful not to introduce tags with the same name that use
different cases. Having "Birds" and "birds" (and indeed "bird"), will cause
headaches.

There is also an attribute, user.xdg.origin.url, here

    https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/CommonExtendedAttributes/

I think, supported in some software but most often disabled by default.

I'll flag as confirmed. Yes, it would be nice if this got some love :-)
