Bug Description

 When you select a photo you can see, on the left windows (this windows is enabled by default), all its info, that is: name, version, data, dimension and exposure. But if you select multiple photos no info is shown.
I think it could be very useful to show photo info also if you select more photos, that is always to show the photo info of the last selected photo.

Tested with f-spot 0.4.3.1 and Ubuntu Hardy

I don't think it's a good idea, that would confuse users but i'm not the developer so i'm waiting for the upstream BTS to be available again for having a look there, thanks.

Pedro, if you read bug #37935 (related to evolution) you can realize that is the same thing I propose for f-spot: the ability to show the info of the last selected photo (in bug #37935 evolution should have provided the ability to show the content of the last selected email when multiple message had been selected).
Bug #37935 was fixed and I think it may be considered a sort of usability approach for every app.

As said you're free to send it to upstream, that's an upstream task.
