Image organization tools - tagging/albums/scratch

[digitallyserviced]

Is your feature suggestion related to a problem? Please describe.
Yes, the problem is I hate GUI's and want to use this TUI app instead of gthumb/pix for tagging/albums/collecting/finding/organizing images im using.

Describe the solution you'd like
Because I want to ask a lot, I want to be able to do EVERYTHING like gthumb/pix does.

• multiple image selection
• ability to "tag" them with embedded or external metadata
• view specific "tags" within a whole folder structure
• maybe an "album/collection" view with all items that were assigned, using some external/app created metadata/cache referencing the paths
• collections/albums/tags maybe pinned in left pane? or as tabs across the top/bottom
• scratch "selections" ability to navigate via keyboard and use keyboard shortcut to assign individual images to a "scratch" selection. where i can select images all over the place individually and press alt+1,2,3 and assign it to a "numbered scratch selection" that is lost on exit, but while in-app, i can recall/selectall of the ones i added to the scratch. so instead of individually selecting images and tagging, i can add them to the scratch selection, then recall the selection of all those images and tag them at once?
• slideshow view / contact sheet / X-up views of the collections/albums/tags

Describe alternatives you've considered
There is no alternative, these must be done now.
