Hi!

I like Dolphin a lot but there's a thing I miss: showing ID3, Exif etc. metadata in the information sidebar.

Meanwhile I found out that this can be done if Nepomuk and Strigi are running and if the file is indexed by Strigi. While this may be suitable for many there are others (including me) that don't want to have Nepomuk/Strigi running.
Also the current implementation doesn't work if Dolphin browses removable media, that isn't be indexed.

Regards,
Andreas
