What I do is when I fire up F-Spot for a nice tagging session, I
disable the file-write. I then add all the tags I want. F-Spot is much
less slow this way. When I am done, I add a dummy tag to all the
photos (or, all the photos that I changed), enable file-write, and
then remove the dummy tag. That gets your XMP data in sync with the
F-Spot database.
