Creating a KIPI plugin

So I'm going to create a plugin for my photo organizing program, KPhotoAlbum. This pugin will allow me to experiment with various ways of measuring relative sharpness of an image, in order to automatically find the sharpest of a series of images of the same subject (similar to what my old Coolpix 955 did, called "Best Shot Selector"). It's a way to fake image stabilization -- any time you take a series of handheld pictures right after each other, some will be more shaken than others, and some might even be acceptably still. Great for when you can't use a tripod for one reason or the other. Since this is the first time I make a KIPI plugin, I'll jot down notes on my wiki
