I like it.

One addition, when a relation type is defined, it might be nice if we could 
set some properties on the endpoints to indicate whether or not the related 
images should be shown be default.  So, for example, in the RAW<->Exposure 
relation, I might mark the RAW side as "invisible", so that I only see 
thumbnails for the JPEGs.  There should probably be a "display invisible" 
toggle.

Like categories, it would probably make sense to have some common relations 
pre-defined, and in the case of Raw<->Exposure, even have some code that can 
(optionally) automatically add the relations when KPA finds new images with 
identical filenames, one JPEG, one RAW.

Overall, though, I think this approach is great.  It's simple, powerful and 
extensible.
