Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in Pix on Mint 21.3 with package version 3.2.2: assign red, green, and blue flags to three media files, quit, and restart. Done means the flags persist for supported media after restart; also assess whether the requested Alt+1, Alt+2, and Alt+3 toggle behavior belongs in this change.

Bug description

Pix is unable to remember assigned red green blue flags after restart.

Steps to reproduce
  1. Flag 3 randomly selected pictures: flag one red, the 2nd green, the third blue
  2. Quit Pix
  3. Restart Pix and see if your flagged files have still their flag.
Expected behavior

Pix should remember flagged pictures/video or other media viewable in pix

Additional information

Please, change the flag shortcut to a toggle key:

Example (green flag)
use alt+1 to set AND unset the same flag. Sorry, but alt+shift+1 is slow and cumbersome, just for a simple flag.

Similarly, apply the same concept to the red and blue flag.
