I agree with Tobias. Judging from the video the implementation shown would
be of limited use. I.e. this quality is not sufficient for any work I
usually do that requires in-painting. Results with Photoshop's in painting
tools usually get me there 90%. Meaning there is still manual work, even
with an industry strength tool that has been through years of iterations
and improvements.
In DT, what would be more useful for now would be if the spot removal tool
was made content aware for e.g. low frequency luminance and/or color.
Basically, interpolate low frequency luminance or.color or both from the
are surrounding area and high frequency detail from the source.

Hello Eugene,
Is there interest in having a content aware patch module in darktable? I
just finished one for Krita. Here's a demo: https://youtu.be/jI87VzDtkPY
I should be able to port it to darktable. Is anyone else working on
something similar already?
We are not aware of anyone working on something similar for darktable.
In the videos the quality of the result was a little mixed. While that isn't
that big of a deal for an image editor where you can clean the filled region up
afterwards it's a little harder for a program like darktable. However, I can
see it at least being useful for more robust spot removal, so having this as a
2nd mode in that module would be nice. And once it's in there you can still
use it to get rid of Trotzki. ;-)
One question about the algorithm you are using: Does it sample the whole image
for matching patches that are then cloned in, or is it just filling with a
gradient from the surrounding pixels? The samples seemed to indicate the
former but I'd like to be sure.
