What I currently do is simple: "import it into digiKam, apply tags, and
go from there". Both digiKam and f-spot do have support for RAW, which
is more than enough for me to preview them if necessary, and to manage
stuff as well. If I do want to do some modifications, gimp-ufraw is
quite helpful.
There are a few features I'm still missing in both digikam and f-spot;
but that warrants another thread, I guess.
