Dear Gilles and Maik 

Thank you Maik for having corrected .... this is not a bug but a suggestion.

To Gilles : no, I do not want to rename Tags.

What i propose to add another structure for picture classification.

Tags are really useful for the description of the photo (place of shot, ....),
not the use (published on my Flickr, user for a contest, ...). This this second
kind of information that would be useful to have in the database.

So, it means that we could have an information storage being not linked to the
picture itself (with no need to write this information as XMP in the file).

In Lightroom, such functionality is implemented with "collections" (not the
same meaning as in Digikam !), and with "porfolios" in PhotoSupreme.

A turnaround in Digikam is to used also Tags to do that, but then it generates
XMP information in the files, that is not really needed.

So what I suggest is to have the capacity in Digikam database to have a
hierarchical structure pointing to selected photos. This means then another
structure (or file) added to the database, and UI to manage it.
