[Digikam-devel] Digikam menu usability improvements

Hello,

I would like to implement some usability improvements for digiKam and friends. 
I have started with some "low hanging fruit" and have attach two simple 
patches for DigiKam Editor and ShowFoto to have View menu on more appropriate 
location. See bug [1] for attached patches. I would like if one of the 
developers would review them, then I can commit them into KDE svn.

I would also like to move "Full Screen Mode" to View menu (currently in 
settings) in all three applications and rename the option in DigiKam 
(currently named "Toggle Full Screen Mode" in Digikam). This would also make 
it consistent with Konqueror which also has this in View menu.

Similar one would also be moving Slideshow to View menu - see [3]. I would 
really like to here if there are any objections to change this.

Next, larger one is DigiKam menu structure, which I think is more complicated 
than other apps (Editor, ShowFoto) and needs a bit more thought. See [4].

Regards,
Luka
