            Bug ID: 479410
           Summary: Highlight next focused unconfirmed name, instead of
                    putting cursor at end of name
    Classification: Applications
           Product: digikam
           Version: 8.3.0
          Platform: Appimage
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Faces-Workflow

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
In a photo preview with multiple unconfirmed face tags, as subsequent tags gain
focus, their names should be highlighted, as the first tag's name was. This
would have 2 benefits: (a) eliminate the need to Ctrl-A before typing the
correct name, and (b) make it easier to see which tag has focus.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. From Albums or Dates view, open the preview of a photo that has multiple
unconfirmed face tags.

2. One of the unconfirmed names in the photo will be focused and highlighted.
If it is correct, type Enter to accept it. If it is incorrect, type a few
letters, use the Down Arrow key to select the correct name, and type Enter to
accept the correct name.

3. One of the other unconfirmed names in the photo will now gain keyboard
focus. Let's say this second unconfirmed tag is incorrect. Let's say it is
tagged as Alice but it should be Bob.

OBSERVED RESULT
This focused name is not highlighted, but has a blinking cursor at the end. If
I type letters now, they will be appended to the end of the name, producing the
name "AliceBob". It's unlikely that I want to append to the end of the name
like that. To prevent that result, I must type Ctrl-A to highlight the whole
name before I type "Bob".

EXPECTED RESULT
This focused name should be not only focused, but highlighted, like the first
unconfirmed tag had been. Now I don't have to type Ctrl-A; I can just start
typing the correct name as I did with the first tag. Also, it's easier for me
to see which tag has keyboard focus if the whole name is highlighted, as
opposed to only having the 1px-wide blinking cursor at the end.
