As for taking pictures of people without their knowing or recording everything it's just not happening.
The latter can be fixed, just that Google wants to make the regular Glass a boring device with all the interesting functions already removed.
That, and it's not like such a command could be changed to be less obtrusive (such as an eye blink pattern).
You either need to have you hand up near your head tapping it or saying "ok glass, take photo". It is actually a lot easier to take an unobtrusive photo with a phone. Where the camera comes into its own is taking photos while you are holding something with both hands. That and the ability to stream what your phone is seeing to the tethered phone - this means you can get a second set of eyes on things if you wanted.
This would get around the Google Glass's unwarranted block on face recognition - just stream raw data out and have Something Else do the interpretation and feedback.
