How do you create a smart album with unnamed faces?

In iPhoto, you used to have the ability to create a Smart Album showing all unknown faces. I know you can see unknown faces at the bottom of the 'Faces' album page, but is there any way ot create a smart album with unknown faces? I want to create a smart album with unknown faces since last year so I can make sure I have all my recent faces tagged - I have thousands of untagged photos from before that I just don't want to deal with. Thanks!

Not perfect, but better than nothing...

I created a Smart Album with a rule set that says "Must match All" and then five rules:

Face does not include a

Face does not include e

Face does not include i

Face does not include o

Face does not include u

The album includes all pics with unnamed faces, but also all pics with no faces (e.g., landscapes). I then scan thru looking for faces I want to name.

I also submitted a request to restore the real feature, as Terence recommended.
