Major disadvantage: digiKam freezes after clicking on the label.

As for the advantages, I'm not going to dwell over whether I want to delete
a bunch of dupes or not. If I decide to delete an image, I want to make it
so, not defer that for later. Being interrupted is not a problem, if
digiKam behaved as I described: I'd just come back and keep deleting images
as I see them.

Alt+3 is a workaround, but really, I see no good reason for digiKam to
reset everything after deleting a file, so I've filed
