--- Comment #4 from Living Creatures <[email protected]> ---
Thanks. Meanwhile, I've located the source of the issue I was experiencing and
seem to have answered my own question about the format of the imported text
file that digikam can accept. For the latter, am I correct in assuming that the
only format that digikam accepts for an imported tag/keyword hierarchy is a
UTF-8 encoded, tab delimited, plain text file with indents to define the
hierarchy? Example:

Term 1
     Sub-term 1
     Sub-term 2
     Sub-term 3
          Sub-term
Term 2
      Sub-term

In my case, the imported file I was using contained lines with characters that
causes digikam to ignore the entire line, e.g. [ and {  In the case of square
brackets, these are typically considered non-exporting terms. In the case of
the curly brackets, in a typical controlled vocabulary, these are considered
synonyms of the previous term. Example:

Dog
     {Canine}

Removing these characters from the file I was importing changes the structure
of the imported hierarchy, but otherwise eliminates the behavior I was
observing. Thus, I don't consider this a bug; digikam doesn't currently support
this behavior. Hence my question about documenting the format of what digikam
expects for the imported vocabulary.
