Dear Maintainer,

If a file has extended attributes and is edited with Emacs, the extended 
attributes are lost.

The easiest and most common way to do this is to assign keywords, comments or 
ratings to a file with the file manager Dolphin* and then open this file with 
Emacs and change it so that it can be "written" under the same name.
(* Or alternatively: setfattr -n user.xdg.tags -v "keyword")

On the homepage of Emacs I think I read that Emacs can handle extended 
attributes. This is obviously still not the case here. However, should this 
behavior be desired in the form, consider this letter as irrelevant.
