I haven't looked at how versions are implemented now, but does it
really make sense to have this information in the images? It seems
like it would make more sense to have it in the database, possibly
with the option to write out to images for compatability.

Also from the XMP specification it seems like it supports branching
and "global history" for files. (History means AFAIK that information
about all other versions is stored in each version of the file.) Is
this supported by F-Spot today?
