-		 * I see with an application recording a video:
-		 *  - Application creates a resource for a video in the store and
-		 *    sets slo:location
-		 *  - Application starts writting the new video file.
-		 *  - Store tells writeback to write the new slo:location in the file
-		 *  - Writeback reaches this exact function and sends IgnoreNextUpdate,
-		 *    then tries to update metadata.
-		 *  - Miner-fs gets the IgnoreNextUpdate (sent by the line above).
-		 *  - Application is still recording the video, which gets translated
-		 *    into an original CREATED event plus multiple UPDATE events which
-		 *    are being merged at tracker-monitor level, still not notified to
-		 *    TrackerMinerFS.
-		 *  - TrackerWriteback tries to updte file metadata (line below) but cannot
-		 *    do it yet as application is still updating the file, thus, the real
-		 *    metadata update gets delayed until the application ends writing
-		 *    the video.
-		 *  - Application ends writing the video.
-		 *  - Now TrackerWriteback really updates the file. This happened N seconds
-		 *    after we sent the IgnoreNextUpdate, being N the length of the video...
-		 *  - TrackerMonitor sends the merged CREATED event to TrackerMinerFS,
-		 *    detects the IgnoreNextUpdate request and in this case we ignore the
-		 *    IgnoreNextUpdate request as this is a CREATED event.
-		 *
-		 * Need to review the whole writeback+IgnoreNextUpdate mechanism to cope
-		 * with situations like the one above.

-		 * This timeout value was 3s before, which could have been in

-		 * along the purpose of IgnoreNextUpdate.
-		 *
-		 * But this is a problem when the event being ignored is a CREATED
-		 * event. This is, tracker-writeback modifies a file that was just
-		 * created. If we ignore this in the miner-fs, it will never index
-		 * it, and that is not good. As there is already the
-		 * IgnoreNextUpdate mechanism in place, I'm moving this timeout
-		 * value to 1s. So, once writeback has written the file, only 1s
-		 * after will unlock it. This synchronizes well with the 2s timeout
-		 * in the miner-fs between detecting the file update and the actual
-		 * processing.
