Thanks for the enlightenment, until now I haven't realized I am looking for a generalized mapping from file metadata to virtual permanode attrs, but in fact I wanted something like that.
I often find photos taken with cameras having incorrect metadata: the clock is not adjusted when switching time zones, or not even set after after replacing the battery. The exif GPS location is often outdated: the first half of photos taken at the same location use the GPS fix from the day before. This can be corrected with exiftool, though. One just needs to download, fix and re-upload the file, and adjust the camliContent of the file permanode. That way any app that accessed the file in camlistore can see the correct metadata. The fact is, photomap works without LocationInfo in camlistore. It has to read the file contents anyway to generate thumbnails and photo icons. This CL in its current form is not necessary then.
