           Summary: usability: separate edit actions into Edit Toolbar with
                    frequently used actions
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Image Editor
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: wstephenson kde org


Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

The image editor in digikam is quite sparse, with almost all the actual editing actions hidden in the menus.  

I think the editor would be more efficient if frequent edit actions were provided in or moved to a separate Edit Toolbar and the main toolbar kept for just view control and save/save as.

Candidates for the edit toolbar are: 
Undo
Redo
<sep>
Rotate 270
Rotate 90
Rotate menu
<sep>
Crop
Add Text
Red Eye
Colours->Auto Correction

I had a quick hack at this but plugins' actions don't show up, and I haven't had a proper look at the code yet - maybe plugins' actions are in a different collection.
