I would be nice if lighttable would be only a special case of preview inside Digikam.

When the user selects a single picture in thumbnail bar the picture is displayed as it is now.
But if the user selects more than one picture then instead of preview we would have the lighttable inside the digikam window replacing the preview.

my 2 cents,

Julien

Sorry Julien, but to embed LT in album gui will reduce usability (to have tried this way when i have started to implement LT)

Also, this will mix together more code and make code less maintainable. Currently LT is completely separated from album gui and connection are done between to follow actions from users. It's more clean.
