How would you manage locks on the db?

Assuming sqlite, you just let it handle them. You have to be intelligent in your use of transactions, but I don't see how a daemon inherently improves lock contention.

Was synchronization issues not the reason why leaftag wasn't successful? I mean if you can't keep file tags synchronized then you are unlikely to succeed in keeping general metadata up to
date...

I think that's one reason why it wasn't successful, but more importantly it wasn't pushed by the developers and was ultimately abandoned by them.

Synchronization becomes much less of an issue if you're able to attach the metadata to the files themselves.
