I cannot remember why they are being flattened, I seem to have lost
the start of this thread.  Is the bug that caused the flattening going
to be fixed (assuming it is a bug)?  If not can you change the tags
using the previous shotwell version (so you still have your hierarchy)
in such a way that they will not then be flattened when you go to the
new version?  This might be easier than re-building the hierarchy.  Or
have I got the wrong end of the stick entirely?
