which leads to a reimplementation of small PTStitcher. How would you
simplify the preview code and add the features? I thought I have taken the
path of least resistance with the current implementation. :)

this needs some more interface code to create a pano tools Transform stack,
from my Panorama class, which is probably needed by other parts as well,
like the outline calculation and some other stuff as well.

If you feel like digging in the pano12 library a little bit, please go ahead
:)

Another way would be to reimplement all the transforms/projections supported
by pano tools, but thats also time consuming.
