Picasa 3.5 faces - mass assignment of people names to photos with undetected faces

For photos in Picasa 3.5 that Picasa does not detect any faces in, is it possible to mass assign People names to blocks of photos? You can do it on a per-photo basis but this is an untenable answer for large numbers of photos. If Picasa 3.5 detects a face but can't figure it out, it's super-easy to mass assign the People names. But if it doesn't detect a face at all, I can't figure out how to do en masse.

"I think jwaddell is right on that one - if you tag the whole photo, it might mess with the tagging algorithm's ""training"". At least, that's what I'm thinking.

I don't know of any way to mass tag like that anyway - my best idea is to tag a few photos of such undetected faces (open a photo and click the People button and click the Add a person manually button) and see if Picasa catches on and starts giving you other positive identifications of the face (go to their name and click the only show suggestions button to see what Picasa thinks is also them)."
