[KPhotoAlbum] Couple of queries & suggestions

[jedd]

 Thanks for your thoughts, Risto.

 I've created two wishlist items:

 Bug 182046:  Metadata dialog box should retain settings  
 http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=182046

 and

 Bug 182054: Need warning during multi-image annotation if
     description field is about to be overwritten
 http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=182054


 You have already posted a 'please retain searches' wish at:
 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151369

 So I've added my votes to it.  Oooh yeah!  That'll do it.

 Yeah .. I've yet to crank up some alternative PHP XML importers
 (I think there's at least three libraries out there).  I suspect it's
 a bug with the one I'm using.  Shall report back after more work.

 With my new laptop a few months back, I bit the bullet and
 went to KDE4 .. just cos I was sure it had to be ready to go at
 4.1.   Sadly it wasn't - there were at least three show-stoppers for
 me, and KPA not being available was one of them.

 I'm getting the impression that KDE 4.3 might be the good release?

 Jedd.
