The only thing I am to agree with is that it degrades the quality of cgeo even further by implementing a feature which I consider mostly useless (is really the *database* size a problem in 2.3+ devices, or is the size problem due to the image files?) and will complicate the maintenance.

I am in no position to impose my views, but I will not answer a single report related to the database being on an external storage which has been removed then reinserted for example, as another database would have been recreated on the internal storage in the meantime.
