But a "cannot" is simply not true. 
I have made it optional (by removing it completely) in about 2 hours of my time
on sunday. If you want the diff you can have it later this evening - simply add
a config option to switch these things off and it's gone (like it should). 
As for the reason I did this: For one I can't get the face detection framework
running (I tried for weeks but it will not compile in my environment on Linux)
and for the other I don't care one iota for the excessive clutter it produces
in the UI for something I have no use whatsoever for - have you ever clicked on
the wrong button and the wretched thing starts scanning 100.000+ images for
faces that don't exist - everything grinds to a halt...
