No.
I'm saying those are two different usage pattern, so "replacing" one with
the other is a mistake.

If F-Spot covered all major gthumb use case there wouldn't be a problem.
As matter stands, it doesn't.

(and no when I growse someone else's usb/flash/cd I don't want to import
everything in a central db then delete what I don't need. I want to browse
first to check if there is something really worth it, and then maybe
import some parts of this archive.)

Most users do not interact only with their own photo storage. They
interact with those of their family, friends, etc. F-Spot assumes there is
only one photo archive which is plain wrong.

nautilus is next to useless for photo browsing. Like it's next to useless
for musinc browsing. For generic file management it's ok. The helix demos
were interesting, but who ever used the nautilus views in everyday life ?
