Dear Stephane

I think the system is useful and I have enjoyed "playing" with it. Thanks
for developing it and making it available. My comments/suggestions are
appended. Hope they are useful.

Regards
Clement

- Free text function is useful. However, since searching the tree to find
terms can take a bit of time (and the most appropriate term may not exist
in the tree), there is a temptation to go directly to free text, but it's
a pity that free text is not searchable

- It will be useful if higher levels can also be matched without it
being explicitly indexed, e.g.
transportation
over the road
trains
(searching transportation should yield a match even though only trains is
indexed). Also, it will be useful if plurals can be matched on searching
the singular (e.g. searching "train" won't match "trains" in image
search).

- In the expansion of the tree, on two occasions, the expanded entries (in
red) got superimposed on to the entries in the level above (in blue).
Also, on contraction, the tree sometimes disappears entirely which would
take time to regenerate.

- It will also be useful if the system allows one to easily skip to
another image if the current image happens to be not too appealing
