I strongly support this suggestion!

(It would be just a simple re-ordering in
graphics/digikam/digikam/albumiconview.cpp,
AlbumIconView::contentsDropEvent)

The current ordering: 1: "assign to all", 2: "assign to selected",
3: "assign to dropped" is not what one usually wants
and can lead to big trouble:
Yesterday I did some tagging with current svn and at one point
by accident did not move down with the mouse to "assign to selected",
but got the tag assigned to all images (unfortunately, that tag was
a frequent one in that album, so just removing it from all images
was not the optimal solution)

As there is no UNDO on tags assignment (would this be possible in
principle ? -> B.K.O wish?) this was a bit of work to change it back.

Best, Arnd
