In first, thanks for your patches...

digikam image editor patch applied to svn trunk (0.9.0 alpha) and stable 
(0.8.x). Tested : work fine here. Need other users feedback...

kipi printwizard not yet applied. The original author of the plugin isn't 
available since a long time. If you is interessed to maintain this plugin, 
you is welcome...

I recommend you to create a new entry to B.K.O about your print wizzard patch.
