But what should that be?  From a quick look at the (possibly out of
date) gnome-scan web page it seems to me that it is trying to be an
application.  That approach may have similar problems to those of
sound-juicer.  Basically this is somewhat hard to solve if we don't
have a rhythmbox for photos... unless we do something like the
screenshot tool where we offer a few fixed options:
   1. Save to Photos
   2. Upload to Flickr
   3. Upload to Picasa
   4. Save as PDF

The operations I do the most are:
1. send the image by mail (but I prefer to save first so I can send more than one file in each email);
2. edit the image with GIMP.

I don't think is a good idea for us to promote by default the usage of proprietary services (flickr, picasaweb). Maybe by default we should offer uploading by sftp and to gallelry2 and flickr and picasaweb be installable plug-ins.

Incidentally whatever we do we should do the same for cameras...

Cameras have a different usage pattern, usually you download from the camera a large amount of images and do something with them (selection, cropping) before publishing.
