What are the current plans for handling remote files.  Plasma Active is moving 
towards a tag based file management system, however how does this translate to 
using other devices such as portable hard drives, SD-cards and FTP servers.  

Nepomuk currently doesn't have a way of sending your tagging information to 
those devices so it can be referenced later(so all tagging information is 
lost) And currently there is no solution for this.  


Possible solutions, device tags: tags that are special and are associated with 
a device or location, so if a file is tagged it is automatically copied or 
moved.  Furthermore, .nepomuk files basically hidden files similar to 
.thumbnails and other hidden service files that can be automatically moved when 
files are moved to a new location.  They then can be read by any other PA or 
nepomuk computer and be used to automatically tag the files referenced so a 
user's tags aren't lost.  

What are your thoughts, is this even a problem or something PA should care 
about?  If so what are some other possible solutions?
