Drag'n'drop between Kimdaba and PhotoPrint works well here - is that not 
a viable alternative to exporting the photos to a directory?

Indeed.  PhotoPrint won't build or run without GTK+, but it will run in 
batch mode without a display (and indeed I'm using it in combination 
with GS in place of rastertogutenprint on one machine!)

Building QT equivalents of the GTK+ widgets I've put together wouldn't 
be a great deal of work.

All the best,
