The meta-information widget needs to be improved indeed. I am not sure
one want to see all lines everytime, but there should be a way to reveal
all lines when needed.

Good point.

So far I like the simplicity of the current thumbnail bar. I am not too
keen on complicating it.

I used to use symbolic links to do this, but nowadays I usually tag
images with Nepomuk to create such collections.

Note: starting with Gwenview 2.5, if you select multiple images in
Dolphin, open the context menu and select "Open with Gwenview", Gwenview
will only display the selected images (it creates links to the selected
images in a temporary folder). This may help you as well.

I don't see the need for this. As you said, "File > Copy" already does
what you want.
