    We could never make any inovative progress if we stayed with
"standards"  :o) ... but I understand your gist, and from what I
gathered from Ed's description of his reorganization, I think he's
addressing the current problems with the 2-set approach.

    I just had another idea for un-cluttering a tab window, possibly
removing entire tab.  Since any session, is entirely dedicated to a
particular roll of film, why not move all concerns for film type to a
menu item??  There may be many "preferences, we'd need less immediate
access to, ... preferred color space & whether or not to embed the
color space, ... the default application after the scan ... auto scan
& auto eject ... watermark ... release memory ... JPEG quality ... all
options for the index file ... font size ... beep ... blink ... anyway
you get the idea.  Can't these be moved to menu items and preference
dialogs??

another US$0.02 ... shaf  :o)
