The workspace Images page selects like a file manager in Grid, List and
Masonry, across every loaded batch: Shift+click ranges from the anchor,
Ctrl/Cmd+click toggles a card without opening it, Ctrl/Cmd+A selects the
loaded images, Shift+arrows extend, Escape clears, and a touch long-press
starts a selection mode in which taps toggle. A plain click still opens or
inspects.
Once every loaded image is checked and more match, the bar offers
"Select all N matching". Add tags, Auto-tag selected and Set category then
send the listing filter instead of N identities: the image-tags job takes
`filter` in place of `targets` and /bulk/category takes `images_filter`,
both resolved by the listing's own admission code (up to 10,000 images, a
Source bound by its root_scope). Export metadata waits for loaded images.
Recorded as deviation D135; the concept is unchanged.
