One remark:
You allow a three-pass/handscanner simulation in color mode with a bit depth 
of 1 (which crashes xsane and xscanimage and lets quiteinsane loop forever). 
Is this just a bug in the test backend or one of the tests ? (Most probably, 
of course, it's an attempt to drive frontend authors insane :-)
