[ptx] Hidden feature in Hugin?

Hi,

after having worked with hugin for quite a long time now I today had a
strange experience with it. When I was working through the controls points
in the according tab I accidentally hit the g-key (instead of the f-key
for fine tuning). I was very surprised to see two input boxes named
"Create control points" which after hitting OK twice gave me a whole bunch
of control points in the two selected images. The control points appeared
to make perfect sense but, as I figured out later, this was only the case
because the images were approximately aligned before due to the autopano
control points.  So, is there any useful functionality for that hidden
feature (e.g. approximately aligning pictures, use the "g"-function and
fine tune the points)?

Working with so many control points also revealed a problem with the
control point table: As I had about 20,000 control points I wanted
to delete those with low correlation coefficient. However, when I selected
them hugin began to show the according image pair for each selected
control point. This took so long I had to kill the process...

Best regards,

Martin Proetzsch
