what you are looking for is stored in

dc:subject


tracker might also keep a list of tag data for photos, idk, would make things like filter by tag easier
I'm quite sure there must be some sort of tag database since the same tags are always available even when not adding them to images. If I go to Share UI and choose to share my image to Picasa/Flickr for example, I can choose tags from a tag cloud that has all the tags I've previously added. So tags are stored somewhere centrally where the gallery and Share UI get to use them.

Tracker might be an answer but doesn't it just index files and file metadata?

But thanks anyway for your reply
