Comment (by jstressman):

 And is it just me, or is it odd to have Tracker natively allow selecting
 to show information that Tracker cannot actually show without installing
 some third party application?

 It seems to me that it shouldn't offer the option to do something it can't
 do unless that functionality is actually present. eg; don't show it unless
 the relevant add-ons are actually installed... or better yet don't show it
 unless the Tracker can automatically populate that information itself.
 Otherwise it's just poor design that confuses new users.
