Question: Identify People without a visible face

Question

Hi,

I have a question regarding the People feature using the automatic face recognition:

I woul like to tag all the pictures in which a certain person appears. Using the Named People (shortcut O) and the Face Recogintion feature does a great job.

However, I have many pictures in which that person's face is not directly visible. I see two option:

Adding a simple Keyword manually, but then those pictures would not appear in the Named People tab.
Adding a "Draw Face Region" (Photo > People > Draw Face Region) manually. The question is: is there a risk to mess up the face recognition algoritm by doing so?

"2. Adding a "Draw Face Region" (Photo > People > Draw Face Region) manually. The question is: is there a risk to mess up the face recognition algoritm by doing so?" I've been doing this for years on my main catalog with tens of thousands of faces, and I haven't noticed any problems with recognizing faces of existing people. But maybe others have had different experience...
