Xavi,

if I understand correctly, you're saying that you can't easily use 
Shotwell's Adjust Date and Time dialog to fix the years since it won't 
let you type in a year.  Since your photos are placed in the year 35345, 
you'd need to click the arrow that decrements the year and hold it down 
for a long long time to get all the way back to the year 2011.

I think your suggestion is reasonable, though users will rarely need 
this since I think when the year is incorrect it's usually off by a few 
decades at most.  Feel free to file a ticket in our bug tracking system 
at http://redmine.yorba.org/projects/shotwell .
