That may be, but Shotwell's F-Spot import code will read from the F-Spot 
database directly rather than relying on data which F-Spot has written 
into photo files.  So we should nevertheless be able to import nested 
tags (although they'll appear nicely in Shotwell only if we do implement 
hierarchical tags in Shotwell for 0.7.)
