I like the idea of a photo book editor, but at least here in Germany, 
most of the photo book printing offers require special software and do 
not work with PDFs. If we decide to go down that route, maybe a list of 
providers which are willing to print photo books produced by digikam 
could be added.

On the other hand, once we get into the book making business, users may 
quickly start requesting more DTP-like features like text boxes, font 
effects, shaped images, handling of paper sizes etc. How about making a 
plugin for KWord or Scribus for selecting images from digikam instead?
