I'm thinking about the idea of uploading the .flickr-store file to flickr itself, for the case when this is used across multiple devices.

There may potentially be security issues with how easily viewable this is. But it also introduces the case where if multiple devices are supported, there could be multiple files with the same name with different contents. For example, I may have 2 machines with /Users/dekz/background.png.

I have no solution to this problem currently but I open this for discussion.

Each computer could be identified by either its hostname (automatically) or a user-defined name, and could become a part of the .flickr-store hierarchy or could prepend the file path.

Definitely part of the .flickr-store hierarchy, but it does mean we dupe files if they are the exact same.
