We have high interest in both these features, but as you can imagine they both require a lot of work to complete. In the case of maps, we're taking small steps to get basic functionality in place, and then from there will look to expand it. For faces, there's more work to do, but your suggestions to fit in with our vision going forward. In particular, we do a similar view for Events, so Faces is a fit as well.

I imagine something similar to iPhoto: When clicking on the faces entry in the pane, show an overview of all persons in the database with their face shown as a tile, like an event. [1] The maps view would contain a big libchamplain-widget, clicking on a pin could show some options, one of them being to show all photos that are near to the one selected. [2] Assigning names to faces or manually geocoding picture could still be done in the normal photo library, but in my opinion this would make it also pleasant to browse photos which are tagged like that. What do you think?
