No maxime, plugins always use extra dialogs to run.

I know what you mean. image editor from M$ Office run like this for example. 
This request have been already reported in this room in the past.

If digikam users want all image plugins embeded into image editor window, i 
need to make substantial changes/tests/fix in digikam image editor core and 
DigikamImagePlugins. This is out of 0.9.0 release issue but can be done 
later.

In all cases, i need to have a full feedback from others digiKam users before 
to start this implementation (it's not a simple job). For that please make a 
file in B.K.O with full descriptions and screenshots if necessary. Thanks in 
advance.
