Q: Mass delete of unknown faces in iPhoto.

When I take photos in a crowd, iPhoto spits out multiple unknown faces.  I have no interest in identifying those people.  I don't even know them.  The software retains all of them in the Faces section of the Library for future identification.  I have 12,000+ unidentified faces. I know it's probably tiny bits of information, but they can add up when you have tens of thousands of photos.

Individually deleting them is a pain.  After I have named the primary subjects in my image, its there an option to en masse delete Unknown Faces in the image?  A quick key would be golden.  If not, how is it that a person can put that feature request bug in the ear of Apples software designers?

 

Thanks
