Hey,

Some random first impressions from a quick compile and run:
 - I really like the feature
 - Geotagging things by dragging to map is neat
 - But the geoinformation does not show up in the extended information
dialog
 - My images are badly geotagged :)
 - The "lock" icon needs a tooltip, I could only guess what it does
from your mail
 - The map feels too small wedged in the bottom left
 - I sometimes end up in the middle of nowhere (central Russia or
Atlantic Ocean) for no obvious reason
 - The delay of the first startup with the patch (due to the database
upgrade?) feels too long without feedback - but that might be a generic
Shotwell issue
