I also tested it recently. It works really great and can recover everything possible from a device.
If I remember correctly, the tool needs read access to the block device, so it may need some additional privileges (not just user, depending on distributions).
And I agree with Gerhard, you can only recover everything, not just a few files. In my case, it took 20 minutes (because my CF reader is very very slow)...
So, I'm not sure it's a good idea to embedded a frontend in digiKam or kipi-plugins. It would be better to have a standalone GUI for that.
