Hi there, Gilles. 

 I think my suggestion here was more to have a sort of training mode for the
face recognition software. Normally it tries to detect and recognize all the
faces as quick as possible.
Unfortunately, this causes many faces to be wrongly detected and it is a pain
to fix. 

I was thinking of a "training" or "manual" mode where the face tagger would go
through your photos and stop as soon as it detects a face. The UI can then show
the face, along with an configurable amount of guesses as to whose face it is
in the picture. The user can then select the correct face, or add a new tag if
the name is not on the list. Then it can carry on to the next face. 
In this way the software tries to help, and may speed up face tagging, but it
won't be incorrectly tagging faces, and so won't learn the wrong faces.

This alternative workflow would reduce the wrong detections quite a bit. Once
the face tagger guesses correct every time, then one can put it into automatic
mode.
