[Feature] Speeding up the "naming persons" workflow

I have searched the existing feature requests to make sure this is not a duplicate request.

The feature

When doing the first install or uploading a lot of new photos and then going to add names to the faces detected I would like to propose an improvement idea to the workflow.

The current one is:

1. Click on unnamed person
2. Enter name
3. Press enter
4. Click "back" arrow
5. Check where the last named person is in the grid
6. Click on the next one

My suggestion would be to make it possible to go to the next person once enter is pressed, or a "save and next" button (using a shortcut like "ctrl+enter") or anything similar that let me put in one name after the other with a minimal amount of steps required (without mouse interaction in the best case).

EDIT: Would be great if the "merging faces" workflow would be part of this enhancement.

Hey, I completely agree. Naming the faces and DOB is a tedious task in Immich.

For now, you can check of immich-power-tools. It is a pretty cool project, and can fasten this process by a crazy amount!

Hopefully someday, we can have those functionality within Immich.

Thank you for linking this. I'm not sure as of now though if I want to use third party tools editing my Immich data.
While the current process is a bit annoying I just started using Immich and just added the important persons for now.
Maybe I will revisit if I want it earlier in the future.
