F-spot/shotwell with ubuntuone or dropbox

[tube013]

Has anyone set up F-spot or Shotwell to store it's DB and Photos in a folder(s) that is synced with dropbox or ubuntuone? I'm interested in setting something up where I can sync the photo library between my laptop, desktop, and my wife's laptop, as well as off-site in the cloud for off site redundancy.

My thought is to symlink the .shotwell or .f-spot config folders, and the Photos directory to folders in a ubuntuone or dropbox share. The only thing to watch out for is having the simultaneous or near simultaneous changes done by 2 machines, but I think we can avoid that. Am I missing any possible caveats?

Thanks!

I'm here for the same solution as the one looked for by tube013.
