Looking at the published code for DR800, the stuff related to document name, author, filesize, etc is stored in a global metadata.db file. This allows quick searches and easy sorting all documents on name, author, date, etc. The annotations are still stored in the local metadata.db, which links to the global metadata to reference the file to which the annotations belong. The functions in the libermetadb hide this from the programmer, so it seems that the current code might even work with this firmware.
Lets wait for the new code and hope that it did not change too much.
