Ok i have seen your implementation.

Something is wrong about behaviour of Comments & Tags with multiple 
selections :

- If you use "More" button options, the Batch dialog appears. it fine.
- If you use "Apply" button nothing appear. It trouble me (:=)))
- If you D&D Tags from side bar to image selection nothing appear. It trouble 
me again...

This is my proposal with Comment & Tags :

- Forget Batch dialog.
- Add a small (like IE loading/Save progress bar) and hidden progress bar in 
the top of side bar, just under the title "Editing n pictures". You just need 
to add the progress bar to the layout hosted by the QWidgetStack
- When "Apply" button or "More" button or D&D are used, show the progress bar 
during processing.
- When process is complete, hide the progress bar.

What do you think about ?
