That is s great idea - being able to control blog photos through a
application like f-spot (http://f-spot.org/) would be very nice. Do
any of the other major blogs done something like this ?, if so then
perhaps there is some API we could support.

I do however detest the idea of not being able to do at least some
minor gallery editing from inside the the typo admin interface -
sometimes I am not on my main computer and still want to blog on
something, so the support for photo management software should be
optional, not required. I still think that adding resource categories
(sub categories might be a different beast), is the best and easiest
solution. Also it is a general scheme and is not limited to photos.
