I like most of the changes to the new Photos app, but I've run into a few problems with my workflow. They all apply to the Mac version as well.

1. "Recently Viewed". There should be a way to disable this. Or at least clear the history. It's a privacy issue.
2. Slideshows. There no longer appears to be an option to play a slideshow that shows the original photo in it's entirety. It's randomly cropped to fill the screen.
3. Special characters in Search. I labeled a bunch of my photos with an asterisk or other special characters in the caption field. Searching for them now brings up "No Results."

Anyone see a way to address these issues other submitting a report to Apple? I'm hoping I'm just missing something.
