Face Recognition History Eraser

Many programs today use face recognition to help you locate photos of people you love. Why not have a program that hides photos of people you hate?
As funny as this idea sounds, there are many people today who have enormous photo libraries full of people they hate, and they are sick to their stomach when they browse through their photos. For these people, a simple face recognition based filter would allow them to flip through their photos without skipping a beat.
A filter like this would also come in handy for people who recently re-married or have young children who are too young to understand photos of their parents with their previous spouses. Whatever the reason, a filter could be pretty handy.
An alternative to hiding group photos could be to show the photo, but obscure the person's face, or even substitute some other image for their face, such as favorite cartoon character, or perhaps a horses rear end. It's up to you.
I think Facebook can easily implement a feature like this using their Privacy Settings. All somebody needs to do is change their relationship status and bingo, all the photos of the ex can vanish from the timeline.
It may sound funny, but I've seen people spend endless hours manually deleting photos. This would save them a lot of time.
