Jonathan, you never fail to discourage people trying to use SANE. A
film scanning frontend doesn't have to be FS4000-specific, so there
are plenty of other programmers who are interested in film scanning
and could help with the frontend, and also with the SANE2 standard.

BTW, what does the new frontend have to do with the IR channel? A
frontend should never get IR data in the first place.
