I apologise if I'm misunderstanding you here, Piers, but Picasa 2 allows
you to set up a "database-like" setup, permitting you to assign your
photos to multiple "folders" and also allowing you to attach "keywords"
to images. That was basically what I had got into the meat of before my
hard disk started having issues, and it was basically what I saw as its
primary purpose.
(Note, I don't know much about Lightroom beyond browsing the website a
bit in recent times, but I am almost certain that it goes well, *well*
beyond Picasa 2 in image processing and workflow. Picasa is relatively
simplistic, and I'd say that in the image-adjustments area it is rather
"happy-snap" in its approach).
