Bug Description
Binary package hint: nautilus
As nautilus can handle EXIF data (you can view it for single files in the files' properties dialogs) it should also show data - e.g. capture dates (DateTimeOriginal) - for multiple files, by providing columns for the list view.
This could also be used for preview icon markings in the symbol view, in the way that you can already show meta data like the file size, when increasing the symbol size above 100%.

Showing photo capture date has become especially important since the change from gnome-vfs to gvfs, as gvfs changes the "modified datetime" when merely copying (but not otherwise changing) files.
With gnome-vfs, the modified date could be taken as capture/creation date, since it was kept when copying the photos from the digital camera / SD card to the local file system.
