I can confirm this bug
Comment 2 Adam Spiers 2011-02-01 00:17:01 UTC 
Me too.  I have also submitted bug 265025 for issues with tagging unknown faces.
Comment 3 LoneStar 2011-02-06 16:43:20 UTC 
I've read on a previous bug comment for beta1 (which I can't remember and can't find anymore) that the code for this is just not present. The button is there but there's no code to handle it.

Well, I expected some code would have been promptly inserted in beta2, being this a rather obviously important function in the whole face recognition process. But also in beta2 the button still does nothing.

Hoping in beta3 :-)
Comment 4 Roland Wolters 2011-02-07 22:00:35 UTC 
I just tested Beta2, the problem is still valid. There is no way of tagging a face which has not been recognized in a previous scan.

I think that is a release critical bug.

Nice, after a brief testing: works for me.
