Most modern trend is to have basic retouching tools, batch processing/browsing and tagging in a photos browser (e.g. Adobe Lightroom), because it's simply a more obvious and convinient way to go ;-) If you are planning to use GNU/Linux, I suggest you having a look at Digikam, F-Spot, KPhotoAlbum (ex-KimDaBa) and Album Shaper. Album Shaper is available for Windows as well. Most, if not all of them use databases, and they will have all organization/tagging features you need much faster than GIMP, if someone ever starts implementing these features in GIMP.
