That "feature" has frustrated me more than once, and it was several weeks before I realized you could click on the magnifying glass in the lower right-hand corner of the popup to get to the image description page (I had previously been right-clicking the image and clicking "open link in new tab")... If it took me that long to make that discovery, there can't be much hope for most readers.

I also agree on the attribution; there's a good idea somewhere in there, but it's too bogged down with problems to be workable.
