Is it so, Boris, that what you really want is to retain the metadata
and perhaps a thumbnail for all the images you offload from the
catalog?

Right, I can live with that. Indeed, you may have the point that the integration between processing and archiving components of LR is so tight that what I am asking is to loosen the bolts all too much...

Basically, what I want is to retain the completeness of my keywords data base, so that if I want to find photos of my daughter or photos of Jerusalem, I won't have to remember to search both in my local photo collection and in those photos that I shot when you came. Though I suppose I gave similar example earlier.

In principle, I am thinking that the organizational information (directory trees, keywording trees, etc) is reasonably small part of what the catalog contains all together. Thus, I think that it can be factored out in a manner of speaking.

But Bob W convinced me that presently this is all but a theory...
