yes zoom/pan button are missing. When dialog will be removed, the
editor zooming buttons from toolbar will be used for that.

yes. same problem here. when dialog will be removed, you just need to
close editore. that all.

Ah. yes. it's in my todo list, but in the future with KDE4 only,
because i will use DB for that.

In KDE3, RAW import remember settings between sessions.

No it's abnormal. i will try to reproduce here.

It's another problem. i will try to check it too...

If you can, please send me in private a RAW sample from you Fuji
camera. I have only one Fuji sample in my RAW repository.

Thanks for this report.
