Review -> Excellent

I found this plugin excellent, it is a button that is added at the end of the toolbar - it can replace completely the attachment button with the additional feature of a scanner button.
As improvements I would suggest:

Make the scanner configurable per user (at this moment is configurable per org)
If there is just one scanner in list it could scan directly instead of showing the list
Is it possible to make configurable the quality of the scan? (in order to have littler attachments)
More complex for future -> ability to cut the scanned image (when the scan is for example a little receipt)

Remote saned

I want to share my experience configuring to use remotely:

had problems running it from eclipse because of java7 requirement (I'm running eclipse with java6) fixed the dependencies and sent patch to developer - and it worked very straight from eclipse
then I installed the plugin in my cloud server and found that (OF COURSE!) my cloud server cannot access my local IP scanner address
But then, happily solved the issue:
- Configured the local saned to use fixed data ports -> file /etc/sane.d/saned.conf - assigned data_portrange = 10001 - 10002
- Configured a tunnel from cloud server to my local machine sharing the scanner, tunneling ports 6566, 10001, 10002
- Configured the scanner as localhost and voilà it worked!
