Not to my knowledge. Although taking a deeper look in kde-apps.org might be of 
use.

I think such a think would be better integrated in an app like digikam. 
Bringing the discussion over there would also be an interesting thing to do.

One thing that could prove very important in what you want is color 
management. I have in my TODO to look at this general topic in the future. 
For now, not much time.

If you plan to investigate into what exists in this area both in KDE and 
elsewhere in Linux, please feel encouraged to post back here.

Thanks.
