Oh, one other note - when I'm doing this and find the image I'm looking 
for - right-clicking on the image in eog lets you do "open with..." 
which is very convenient to open up in gimp or inkscape. Shotwell's path 
here is a bit more roundabout - you have to right-click, do
'show in file manager,' and then dig out the image (it just dumps you to 
the dir without the target image visible, so you have to go back to 
shotwell, hunt for the name of the image in the UI, then go back to 
nautilus again to find it, and the file names are usually very similar 
and gibberish like if from a digital camera), then right click in 
nautilus to open with the target app.
