Description

Describe the feature you'd like to request

The software has recognised me but has also also included some else (PERSON Y) as being me. I want to mark the photos of PERSON Y and move them to a new person. I can't do this as PERSON Y has not been recognised on his own and I appear to be only able to move someone to en existing person.

Describe the solution you'd like

When you try and move the pictures to another person, as well as the list of people recognised it would be nice to have a "Create new person"

Describe alternatives you've considered

There isn't an obvious one

Research direction

Start by locating the interface for moving photos between recognized people and the related person-management flow. Done means users can choose “Create new person” while moving selected photos, creating a separate person for them; verify that the existing move workflow remains usable.
