First of all ---

being my first post here, I introduce myself. Romano Giannetti, 
electronic engineer, Italian, Spanish resident, temporally living in 
Colorado. I use Unix since ... ever, and Linux since around 1990. Thank 
to all the community for darktable. I used it sporadically in the last 
year or two, and this year I decided to switch to it for my photo 
workflow.

So for my question: is it possible to apply a rating to all the images 
in a group while in lighttable?

I explain my rationale. I normally shot RAW+JPEG; then I import all the 
files to a disk directory. Sometime there are files that are jpeg only 
(panoramas, strange things, operator errors, etc.).

The next step is the first cull. The procedure I would like to use is to 
rapidly sweep through the images in lighttable (1 image per screen) and 
mark with "r" the ones I want to delete forever; at the end I review all 
of them showing "only rejected" and if I don't see anything strange I 
select them all and send all those blurry or insipid bits to oblivion 
with "delete".

Now, grouping let me very conveniently not seeing images duplicates; but 
using the above procedure will delete only the raw files (which are the 
"head"s in the group --- by the way, I suppose this is so reliably --- 
am I correct?); but I could not find a way to rate all the members of 
the group togheter, so that when I cull the jpeg will be removed too. 
It's me that am unable to RTFM or this is not available? A kind of "R" 
or "ctrl-<number>" to apply rating "through" all the members of the 
group will be handy.

Another possibility would be to have an option to import just raw files 
avoiding the jpeg that have a correspondent raw, but importing the  
"lone" jpegs.

Thank you all for your attention! And thanks for dt!

Romano
