Some more findings:

Lets say one confirmed Person 1 for a picture where actually Person 2 is 
shown. IMO there is no obvious (easy enough) way to correct that mistake.

If one views People > Person 1 and removes the Person 1 tag from an image the 
image is not removed from the view. If one opens the picture one sees that it 
still has the face marked as Person 1. Clicking on the "Person 1" tag does not 
give any possibility to change or remove that tag. "Clear all faces" is not 
really an option since one would have to rescan the picture and in case there 
is more than one face on it one would remove all others as well.

So it seems that in that case tags and faces are out of sync.

For pictures in the "unknown" tag if one clicks on "Who is this" there is no 
way to select an already existing tag but one has to type the name again.

If one starts typing the already existing tag suddenly appears in a drop-down 
menu. Moving the mouse on the drop-down menu and out of it closes the drop-
down menu which should not happen.

If one wants to add/confirm etc. tags while digikam still scans the view is 
refreshed constantly and makes working on the pictures impossible. I think 
this is related to the bug that restarts videos when one plays them from 
within a folder that new pictures are added to.

I'll add to this thread id I find new things.
