Guys, I'm playing around with adding the widgets to the external 
dialog to enable the use to rotate, scale, crop the output if so 
desired. As not all the available templates will support these 
transforms, I thought that it would be best to shove them into a 
tabbed folder (or two).

Attached is a screen shot of things as they are in my tree, together 
with the fdesign file. The "Transformations" folder would eventually 
contain the rotate, scale and crop data present in the graphics 
dialog. Presumably as three seperate tabs. The idea would then be to 
only activate the tab if the transform was supported by the given 
template.

Questions: 
* is this design Ok?
* Any suggestions for improvements? 
* How would you expect the same functionality to be presented in the 
Qt frontend?
