:-)  Glad you like it.   To be honest, I'm surprised it's that useful to 
you!   I'd really not intended it to be used with "real" XMP data.
The location information you are seeing created really shouldn't be - 
it's a limitation of my lack of knowledge about RDF --- what should 
*really* be happening is that only the items inside the dc:subject node 
should be getting tags created for them, but because my patch is really 
simplistic and treats all RDF Bag structures equally, you are seeing a 
lot more stuff being created...

If you are talking about things like the 'Headline', then it definitely 
is a limitation of my patch.   I might be able to add some code that 
extracts particular fields though, like photoshop::Headline...   I'll 
take a look when I get a chance.
The first photo that you included doesn't seem to have a dc:subject node 
at all - or any bag objects present in it, so I wouldn't expect the 
patch to create any tags.  From looking at the XMP data, I'm not sure 
how we could extract anything useful...
Thanks for the feedback and testing!
