Enhancement proposals

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hello, 

This might not be the right place for it, but I have a few enhancements (in
my opinion) I wanted to propose, mostly in the picture view window: 
- I wish the right click would not return to the list of pictures, but
rather open the same (more or less contextual menu)
- Could it be possible to add some zoom option ? 
- In the left side panel brought by the insert key, I think it used to be
possible to see the list of tags and click on them to add or remove them.
Why did this feature disappear ?

And on the pictures metadata:
- The comment is stored in the "exif comment" section of the pictures.
Could it be possible to also add it in the "iptc description" field (while
retaining the exif comment as primary key for jbrout), so that more other
programs could view it ? I see that useful for people to whom I send pictures
- I know jbrout is aimed at pics from digital cameras and not scanned pics,
but could it be possible to have some kind of repair or initialize function
for images without exif/iptc ? that could be useful for scanned images,
pictures received from people with programs that don't take the same care
of them as jbrout... (or pictures I worked on before jbrout...)

Well, thanks for the good work, and for adding the autorotate feature :)

I suggest enhancements requests should be made is separate issues. It will be 
easier
to track separate answers to each item.

The side panel still shows a list of the tags in the picture with a 'X' button 
beside
each to allow them to be removed and adding a tag is still possible by starting 
to
type the tag in full screen mode with or without the side bar displayed. 

To begin with I missed the tree view of the tags but now prefer it without (I 
have
been using the 0.3 for some months before it's first official release.  )

I also echo davitofrg's comment please split the feature requests into separate 
issues.  

Thanks

All right. I just went back to using jbrout, since I had problems with the flash
value 80 until recently and am not used to the new fullmode taglist yet. Might 
be
useful when there are many tags in the db I guess. 

I'll make other entries for the other proposals
thanks for the answers

the comment in not stored in "exif comment" ! it's stored in "jpeg comment", 
the most
ommon used field for this kind of thing ...
in jbrout 0.3 : all pictures without exif/iptc imported in jbrout receive now a
"minimal exif set"
the treeview tags in fullscreen mode was removed, because it's a lot
simpler/easier/speeder to tag with keyboard !

the zoom option, in full screen mode should definitivly appear soon
