Hi!

Thanks for your patch. I finally took some time to look at it and integrated 
it with some changes in svn. I still have to work on the slideshows but 
otherwise seems to work fine.

One of the change is that when several clips are missing, Kdenlive will look 
for them in the given folder and ask again only if they cannot be found, so 
that you are not asked for a search folder for every missing clip.
