[KPhotoAlbum] KPhotoAlbum - mailing list and export suggestion with code

[Johannes Zarl-Zierl]

Hi Samuel,

I did a first proper sweep over your patches. Apologies in advance for being 
picky ;-)

Here are some hints for improvement:

(1) Patch format
These issues are more a formality, but make my life as reviewer a little 
easier:
1a. Please use spaces for indentation.

1b. Group patches in a semantic way.
E.g.:
Patch 1: Add theme files for js_export
Patch 2: Implement js database export
etc.


(2) Licenses
Since you include a third-party JavaScript library, you should also add their 
license file to the theme (and copy it when exporting).


(3) Coding conventions
3a. Please declare variables "as late as possible" (usually on first use). 
This improves readability.
seen here:
[Patch 2 -> "QString Images_data, Relations, Categories;"]

3b. Prefer "if (!condition)" over "if (condition == false)"


(4) TODOs
You introduced a few TODOs/question comments in the new code. I didn't have 
time yet to consider them in context. I'll comment on those when I've had the 
time…


(5) boolean values in kphotoalbum.theme file
There's already a boolean option "Default". For consistency's sake, please use 
"true" and "false" for the new keys as well.


So far, that's all I could find.

Cheers and thanks!
  Johannes
