http://adactio.com/journal/1274/ 18. machine_tags (Optional) Aside
from passing in a fully formed machine tag, there is a special
syntax for searching on specific properties : * Find photos using
the 'dc' namespace : "machine_tags" => "dc:" * Find photos with
a title in the 'dc' namespace : "machine_tags" => "dc:title=" *
Find photos titled "mr. camera" in the 'dc' namespace :
"machine_tags" => "dc:title="mr. camera" * Find photos whose
value is "mr. camera" : "machine_tags" => "*:*="mr. camera"" *
Find photos that have a title, in any namespace : "machine_tags"
=> "*:title=" * Find photos that have a title, in any namespace,
whose value is "mr. camera" : "machine_tags" => "*:title="mr.
camera"" * Find photos, in the 'dc' namespace whose value is "mr.
camera" : "machine_tags" => "dc:*="mr. camera"" Multiple machine
tags may be queried by passing a comma-separated list. The number
of machine tags you can pass in a single query depends on the tag
mode (AND or OR) that you are querying with. "AND" queries are
limited to (16) machine tags. "OR" queries are limited to (8).
