Hi! I just noticed this thread. I am the one that created tumme.el
last spring. It started at first as nothing more than a bunch of
macros (almost), to see if I could merge image-manipulation with
dired. The idea was to re-use the many powerful functions in dired as
much as possible and my main goal was to use it for categorize/tag my
photo collection, which started to get out of hand. I could not find
any tool with advanced multi-tag and multi-file functionality. 

Hence tumme.

It is still in its infancy as far as I am concerned, and needs
polishing especially from a new user's perspective.

I too find annoyances in it even though it works for my day-to-day
image browsing/cleaning/categorizing, but I am sure all this can be
sorted out.

Maybe we should put up a page, TummeIssues, or TummeDiscussion, with
stuff that people are unhappy about, etc?

I am currently testing out how a Flickr-interface in Emacs would work
out. If it turns out well, it should be easy to access it from tumme.
