It is, maybe it's just collapsed ( there's a 'handler' on the right that
you can drag and make the globe appear again )
( or dirk didn't put the globe on the new build script and builded with
-NO_MARBLE )

Same as above, the globe is just collapsed.

Yup.

If no tags were selected, you would see the list empty, what do you prefer?

it should, unless I did something wrong, but it seems that my tests are
correct ( I used dirk's logfile )

Sure.

Not from scratch at all, the way I did, the interface is completely
separated from the filtering feature, so what we need to do is to redo the
UI, but the filter code doesn't needs to know about it.
that's why I did that way. The interface currently is provided by Qt, but
we can  completely override that.
