Please thumb a directory with at least 8 image files. Delete one file
with (x) or mark (m) some files and delete (x) them in the first row.
Everything works fine so far. Then proceed to the second row and mark
and delete at least two files. There should be one remaining marked
file left.

Right, it works as you want it to.
With my little testing directory I checked now every feature explained
in the mode description (C-h m) of both the *Image* buffer* and the
*Thumbs: DIR buffer, except the set root (w) command. Up to now I
can't find errors anymore.
Wish list (now he's getting cheeky):
====================================
1.) In my testing directory there are HUGE images (compared to the
screen resolution) from a digital camera. It's rather awkward
watching them in the *Image* buffer. Wouldn't it make sense to
restrict a bit the maximum picture size, say 1200X1200 or so?
Then a function like 'show-original-size' would be somewhat
expected, wouldn't it?
2.) It's not documented that the LEFT, RIGHT, and so on keys also
displaying the filename while scrolling through the thumbnail
buffer. While the "normal" movement Keys: C-f, C-n, etc. aren't.
Is this a feature or a bug?
3.) Why do you need the save (s), set root (w) and especially the
embossed (e) command at all? 'thumbs' shouldn't be a second gimp, in
my opinion. (Can you imagine, a user who wants less features!)
By the way, it's somewhat unfamiliar that filename completion is not
available when saving files.
4.) C-t m and C-t a are not documented except in the source. Just an
idea for keyboard short-cuts which I've seen in other packages:
When somebody is bored he could make C-t C-t, C-t C-a equivalent
to above commands.
5.) Wouldn't it make sense to have some sort of preview in the dired
directory? In the line of
display-the-current-file-in-another-buffer? Scenario: Someone is
scrolling through dired and unexpectedly finds a file which might be
an interesting image, instead of invoking auto-image-file-mode he
chooses thumbs, which is also shorter to type. Maybe with C-t t
(C-t C-t) or with RETURN (in the line of auto-image-file-mode) he is
able to preview the current file, but, please, please, in another
buffer.
Now as you've something to work on, I can tranquilly go to bed. Yawn
no, better not, I should practise a bit with diff so that I'm able to
send you suggestions for the documentation in form of a patch.
