[Digikam-devel] Rename widget layout

The second design is the old one :-)
The columns are dynamic, so when the widget has more space, more columns are 
created (try resizing the RenameDialog or the splitter in BQM).

The new design is the first link, but this looks weird in the rename dialog.
Actually I don't want to have two different layouts, this is confusing for 
users.

Maybe someone has a good mockup?
Right now I will commit it the way it is, with the compact version in Import 
and the normal layout in BQM and AlbumUI.
