I'm sorry about that but information on a possible problem before it 
bites the user should be mentioned.
The programs are there and will be used. So it is better to be aware of 
possible conflicts.

Tagging with digikam is in my opinion very efficient compared to 
darktable unless you restrict the use of tags. I always have the 
original photos write-protected, so the problem is manageable if one is 
aware of it.
Which means: After tagging with digikam you have to read the photos into 
darktable again.
