DT more needs a better db management than a file management :
 - DT needs a better UI for tagging / managing keyword
 - DT needs a way to fill IPTC location fields (Country, City etc...)
 - DT needs a better db explorer (as already proposed on DT's wiki :
http://darktable.org/redmine/projects/darktable/wiki/MetadataBrowserGui)

I understand developers "have image editing code to write" but since DT can
manage masks, the 3 points above are the last big ones why I still use
AfterShot Pro. The darkroom of DT is enough for my needs.
