This is something I've been thinking about actually.

The two ideas I've had on this are:

1) Expose image data via the listTimeObjects API. This can obviously  
get out of hand very quickly though. The alternative here is to only  
expose the galleries via the API - and use the original creation date  
of the gallery so that the gallery won't float around the calendar  
based on any edits/image additions. The advantage of this method would  
be you could see *all* your galleries via the API. The drawback to  
this method is obviously you wouldn't see the images on the date you  
took them, but rather on the date you added the gallery to Ansel. This  
also wouldn't actually associate any data with a specific event, only  
a specific date.

2) Add functionality to Kronolith that would allow a user to  
explicitly connect a single gallery to a single event. Maybe show a  
small icon with the event's title on the calendar that links to the  
ansel gallery - or maybe even just shows a mini view of the gallery in  
a lightbox directly in Kronolith.

I actually see both of these things as having uses...any other devs  
have thoughts on this?
