How is the new 'photos' app ? Are we looking at the typical 'apple replacement' for an existing app - which comes with less features and severely cripples productivity until 16 updates down the line (after an outcry from masses of consumers, complaining about lost functionality) - or is it at least as functional as iPhoto (not even going to compare it to poor old Aperture which has likewise been put out to pasture).

I'm a little (actually very) nervous about the iPhoto -> Photo's transition…

And I'm not even talking about the general buggyness and terrible (Finder) performance.
