Sorry, but still Caption/Tag tab and filter tab looks extremely similar and are
very easy to mistake. I'm very regular and advanced user of Digikam but this
happens to me virtually all the time. It's very frustrating because usually it
leads to some unwanted effect (like that I lost selection of files, which
sometimes took quite a effort to make or even worse instead of deselect/select
some tag, I remove/add tag on great number of images). In some cases this can
be much worse then crash.

There should be some logical position for tools - on the left pane we can have
tools which affect what images are displayed (search, album browser, filters
etc.) and on the right side tools which displays or alters image properties and
metadata. This would make a lot of sense. And still I believe it's true that
Tag browser on the left pane is just filter tab with limited functions.

I'm working on 4.1, I don't know if it's vastly better in newer versions.
