You are right... kind of. It is somewhat more complex.

Anyway, the suggestion for importers to be as quick as possible, and not to read in (and decompress/decrypt/whatever) gigabyte files, instead storing the metadata in a different way which would need just a quick seek or something similar, is definitely right.

As for the Spotlight improvements... of course, there is a lot of potential in the technology, but let's be fair -- it's a first release what we have :) Incidentally, have you read the excellent John Siracusa's article at

which proposes things I would like indeed? :)
