I scanned an album and it does reach the end, yet it does not close the pop-up 
window with the scanning progress and neither does it stop the progress bar 
from moving left to right and back.

But what if you already assigned a name to that face? Then close the picture 
and click on it again. After that there is no "Who is this" dialogue but only 
the tag shown. And clicking on that tag does not allow to change or remove it.
