Thanks for your reply Patrick.

Some assumptions would, of course, have to be made. The copied auto setting
would *always* work on the full image, as it does when we click de eye
dropper, regardless of the selected area on the source image.

Maybe even, but i guess that's a very deep change, setting this to be the
default behavior of the exposure module when activated. If the module is
just turned on it would do it's thing and we could make manual adjustments
if we want to or just leave it as is. That way we could only copy the
on/off setting between images.
