[Tracker] Upcomming API review



I did a review of the upcomming API and I generally find it really good. I have a few comments/questions though... - This is not a real critique, just loose ramblings :-)

Search interface:
 - I must admit I don't quite grok the Query method. It looks like powerful stuff, and is prolly just a documentation problem (or lack of braincells on my behalf)

Files interface:
 - Why would developers want to create a file at a specific size?
 - What is the advantages of creating files through tracker? To handle mime-stuff?

File signals:
 - There has been a lot of wishes for recursive watches with inotify but rlove has denied any patches. It does not look like Tracker can give recursive watches in this API - perhaps it will be a welcome addition?

Playlist interface:
 - Perhaps this interface can be replaced by a general list of first class objects? Maybe this is actually just a special form of tagging... Anyway just a thought :-)



Cheers,
Mikkel
