[Shotwell] enhancement request: return flickr url after upload

[Clinton Rogers]

Hi Bryan,

This seems like it'd be a pretty useful feature; I've opened a ticket for it
at http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/3984.

Thanks for your interest in Shotwell.  If you have any other ideas about how
we could make it better, please feel free to let us know.

Cheers,
-c
