What do you mean it seems stable to me. So far at least, it does what I
want. 

A separate topic is how to use MySql instead of sqlite.
I see the schemas in the source code, and assume there is a suitable
config parameter that says which to use. But after decades of
using assorted DBMS packages, they all kinda look the same to me.

Another topic worthy of a separate thread is general documentation
of the slimserver's use of the database. It maybe somewhere,
but I haven't found it, yet.

What I expect do start with is an option on the server that says
something along the lines of
"the user has data that is not from the tags, don't just 
whack all the data without thinking"

Not to say that sometimes a whack after thinking a bit is
unjustified, sometimes a whack is needed.
