I can hold up my wife as an example of your analysis of how a "normal
user" wants to interact with photos. She goes through the trouble of
booting back into windows to use picasa because of its photo
management capabilities. It will be interesting to see if f-spot means
the functionality bar to make booting into windows no longer worth the
effort.
