            Bug ID: 334634
           Summary: Add metadata sidecar support for albums
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: digikam
           Version: 4.0.0
          Platform: Compiled Sources
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Metadata
          Assignee: [hidden email]
          Reporter: [hidden email]

Currently album metadata is only stored in DB. In my workflow I heavily depend
on metadata being stored with my collection (for backups and syncing with other
computers), which makes album metadata difficult for me to use.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Change album metadata
2. Copy collection to another computer/remove the DB/restore DB from collection
metadata

Actual Results:  
Album metadata is lost

Expected Results:  
Album metadata is preserved

I mentioned sidecar as it is used for image files without metadata support. If
this idea could be copied for album metadata it would solve my problem.
