So you can use this scanner app to take pictures using a webcam! That's a bit... special. :)

Well, you can use *any* scanning app to take pictures from a webcam thanks to the libsane V4L backend… except now Skanpage where you explicitly removed this useful feature for no good reason.

It's configurable in the new settings window
