If I understand correctly, OpenCV is "just" a library. Are there any user tools out there which make use of it, eg to add info to EXIF info within JPEGs that other software might be able to use?

Yes, OpenCV is a library; but it comes with a set of example programs, one of which is Viola-Jones -- or at least it did when last I downloaded it.

Also have a look at processing - I've done a lot of stuff using processing and its openCV library. I even brought a face tracking robot to an Alug PubMeet using a combination of processing and arduino - and dropped the arduino into a pint of beer. (My Lazer Targeted Face Tracking Missile Launcher (made from bits Wayne gave me) is not comming together too well because of perspective problems.
