Hi Nico,

I think indexing by cron could always ne done. This is what the manual from DAM
1.1 beta3 says:

Media>Tools>Cron Job
This module is similar to the indexing module with the difference that the
indexing setup can be saved to be used as a preset for a cron script. The cron
script itself can be called periodically or triggered by some event to index new
files automatically while operating in the background.

I haven't used cron for indexing myself yet, but the possibilities are there.
