I also have some issues with the current keystone feature.  Apart
from the often poorly visible "ok" button, I don't see a usecase for
the infinity symbols.  Similarly, I don't see how grabbing the thick
grey bar between the two upper points (when correcting only
vertical) can help.  In my opinion, they confuse more than they
help -- but possibly I don't see the actual purpose?

Anyway, one feature that I miss is to set the point where the camera
looks perpendicularly on the plane to be corrected.  At this point,
the vertical and horizontal scaling is the same.  If this point is
known, a slanted checkboard can be transformed to a perfect
checkboard.  Otherwise, you end up with rectangles instead of
squares.

One practical usecase is a vertically tilted photograph of a
wall/building, with the bottom line not in the picture.

Is this already possible with darktable?

Tschö,
Torsten.
