Hi Gaylord,
For what you want I suspect you need to place a feature request with the DK
project to enable callout to darktable as an external editor.
Until then I think you might be best advised to not do any tagging or labelling
in DT but only in DK. i.e. just use DT to process the images and export them
to jpeg or other format for load into DK and subsequent
labelling/tagging/whatever you want to do in the database. You might even like
to look at using something like LightZone instead of DT - I don't think LZ is
as powerful as DT but it is still nice and has the advantage of being based
around a simple file browser rather than the having the baggage of requiring
import into it's own database (which you won't need as you are using DK for
that).
Rgds,
Rob.

Subject: Re: [Darktable-users] recommended software for image management?
Hello
I have exactly the same problem. I use DK to manage my pictures since many
years. I have a database of 28 000 pictures. Until last year, I used a bridge
to take most of my picture in JPEG. But I bougth a SLR this year and to use the
full power of it, i take picture in RAW. To my mind, DK editor is not powerfull
enough
for editing RAW (was perfect for me for JPEG) : open a RAW and each applies of
effect it's quite slow. So I look to a real RAW editor and I find DT which is
really great. I watched all spanish video turorials of Juan Luis Fernández
Gallo. <http://www.youtube.com/user/jen0f0nte?feature=watch>
Even if DarkTable is a great tool; i want to still manage picture in DK to
continue my database.
I have tried several things : import pictures from Digikam; open folder in
darktable; starring pictures in darktable; modify picture in DT; Synchronise
metadata in DK (to recover number of stars given in DT), Tagging picture
(keywords, localisation) in DK (i have set DK to store information in XMP files)
Now, I'm in front of a problem : how to see in DK changes applied in DT?
because DK have plugging to export pictures to my fresh (still empty) piwigo
web album.
I have tried : export picture in DT; but tags of DK are not synchronized (i
was thinking this was possible as they are stored in xmp)..
I though a lot about that, and i think there could be a very simple way to do
that : as DK manage versionning by creating a new picture; is there a way to
use DT export picture as new version of raw picture in digikam ? For me export
DT pictures will have the same name (not the same extension) that the raw
picture; so it could be easy to link the two version... I didn't find the
answer yet.

Tags can be drag-n-dropped on the left hand side to reduce clutter.
Searches are effective within layers
