I had a look at how the --get-config and --set-config options in gphoto work a
while back. Apparently, libgphoto does not provide direct access to these
configuration options, but a configuration dialog. The command line gphoto
program requests the configuration dialog and then analyzes the widgets in the
dialog to see which options it can offer. When you use --set-config, it
modifies the values of these widgets and "presses OK" in the dialog, all
without ever showing it.

So there are two options:
- simply request the gtk-based configuration dialog from libgphoto and display
it to the user
- reuse or rewrite the code that takes this dialog apart and create a KDE/Qt
based one

`gphoto2 --summary` also shows camera properties, but I don't know how easy it
is to relate these to the convenient options presented by --set-config.
