Haven't had a chance to review the talk note yet, but one observation
based on Paul's comment:

The Record activity in fact does group photos based upon the session
they were taken. This is the sort of thing that could be delegated to
activities, where the higher-level knowledge to create sets would be
available. As long as there is a way to communicate this to the
datastore/journal we should be OK in this regard. In other words, the
UI should probably be elsewhere.
