           Summary: Nonsensical question when entering Flickr export
           Product: kipiplugins
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kde-imaging kde org
        ReportedBy: magnus utslett no


Version:           rev 547617 (using KDE KDE 3.5.2)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc 3.3 
OS:                Linux

When entering the "Export to Flickr..."-plugin (from digikam), a dialog pops up telling me that I am logged in as myself and that I have the necessary permissions. I am given the option to continue in this way, or to change user and/or permissions.

This is complete nonsense. I (and I guess most others) will only log in as myself (themselves), and I have no problem with having write permissions.

A better user interface is to open the export window completely, and show the information passively in this window. If the user thinks there is an error in this information, s/he could press a "Change..."-button.

It is not possible to bury this information deep enough. When will there ever be need to change the user or the permissions (if they are all right once)?
