Bug Description
The Photos scope and gallery app support a mechanism where a photo can be opened directly in the gallery by tapping 'open' on it in the photos scope. However, this appears to fail on the first try if Gallery hasn't been run before.
Steps to reproduce this:
1. Flash the phone to get a fresh install.
2. Take some photos in the camera app.
3. Navigate to those photos in the Photos scope.
4. Select a photo and tap 'open'.
Expected results: Selected photo opens in the gallery app.
Actual results: Gallery app opens and shows the 'Events' view, but does not open the chosen photo.
On second attempt, the expected results happen.
I suspect that the gallery app may be getting stuck on indexing and thumbnailing the first time, and once that is done things work as expected.

Confirmed the bug
The issue seems to be not opening the photo for the first time from the scope, but opening any photo that hasn't been added to the gallery's event view yet. For example, any picture that gets taken with the camera and then tried to open from the scope will show the events view rather than the picture because gallery is still in process of adding the picture to the event view.
