I seem to remember the same question from jan. 20th... I replied (on the 
mailing list), with some suggestions. That got no further reactions...

Exactly the same thing happened with your *other* question from Jan 20th.

If those were suggestions for the devs/wishlist, you're better off posting 
them on the digikam issue tracker. If you want suggestions from users, it 
helps to read them and reply.

Ignoring replies and reposting the same questions a few weeks later will get 
you ignored.

Good luck, I'm out.
