Histogram idea

[Boudewijn Rempt]

I've been playing with bibble pro (http://www.bibblelabs.com/), an image 
manipulation app written using Qt, and one thing they have is very 
interesting: their histogram is not hidden in a modal dialog, but is shown as 
a docker tab. That makes sense, since users tend to want to keep the 
histogram in view as much as possible. I would like to put the histogram in a 
docker tab, too, and when it is visible, update it regularly. The update 
mechanism could then also be used to update the thumbnails we need in the 
layerbox and in the overview docker tabs.

We would also need to add an overlaid mode of the histogram widget where red,
green & blue are shown, and perhaps overlay the histogram with the curves 
widget and make it interactive. Screenie attached:
