;Use of EXIF data in GRAMPS database.
 
* Many digital photographs come with embedded EXIF tag metadata. It would be nice if GRAMPS could read this, and automatically populate database fields, such as date, location, etc. It would be even nicer if GRAMPS data was stored into the EXIF metadata, as photographs are often distributed separately to the main genealogical database, and it is far too easy to forget to update metadata...
 
 
 
;Allow use of URI's for file location.
 
* GRAMPS currently allows an image to be referenced (effectively) as file:///home/foobar/pics/image.jpg. Is there any reason why we could not use any standard URL for any media object? A local cached thumbnail would need to be automatically generated (probably with update options) to permit off-line use.
 
 
 
;Addition of Descendant Tree chart to 'Narrated Web Site' report.
 
* When producing the 'Narrated Web Site' report and selecting 'Descendant Families of ...' option, it would ease navigation for users if the resultant report contained a page with the descendant tree for the selected person.
