For instance, under:
/B3/Echantillons/

There are, as an example:

 BlackOctopus/
 ModeAudio/
 WaveAlchemy/

There is a significant difference though.  None is in ~.  Actually ~ is
almost treated like a long-term temp directory of some sort.  I do not
put any data that 'is created by me' eg. that is not OS, in an OS
folder.  This makes it possible to have a smaller OS partition, and
then as large partitions as needed for data of various kind, outside of
the OS scope.  The OS can change at any time and the data will still be
in its place.  Physically, the data can also be on different discs.

I guess that it would be possible to run a script an extract sfinfo
data for each single file and construct a database with the filenames
and sffile data and occasional notes about the files...

Or if a file manager allows hooks, to add a sfinfo hook.
