I'd second switching to GNOME Photos as a default. It has minimal editing
features, which are useful for the majority of point-and-shoot and phone
users, and would replace an unmaintained piece of code that we've steered
clear of removing as a default, because GNOME Photos wasn't to the expected
level of functionality.

We're having a hackfest about core GNOME (and Fedora Workstation, thus) applications
so any feature requests or bugs, please file them upstream against
gnome-photos, and we'll do our best to review them next week.

Cheers
