Yep that was nice. The thing I was complaining about is actually a user
issue. (meaning, user is expecting to click on something to add a (new
and not already in the existing tags, so no drag/drop to do) tag to an
existing photo.

Ended up, one can actually just TYPE it into the box.


hehe.. ;)

I went through your code (from svn) and noticed the workarounds and the
complaints you made in your comments and then I understood your
predicament.

Cool.. (nit pick, the DELETE box, can be made smaller so as not to cause
the rest of the icons to become drop-down box. Since there's not many
icons altogether, would prefer everything to be view-able

Cool.. Looking good all the time..

BTW, as FYI, tried on windows, doesn't work. (Do I need the mono
libraries on WIndoww? I'm sure (I think) I have the dotnet libraries
installed.


One easy reason I can think of is the usage of GConf. Haven't tried on
windows myself yet, something in store for future though.
