I don't know if my mode of use is unusual; clearly
people with bigger monitors, or shooting with fisheye
lenses, OR using auto control points would have different
points of view.

But;

On my laptop, with a 1024x768 display, running KDE,
the control point GUI doesn't have much room for my pictures,
which is where (of course) I'm working.

In case my scenario is unusual, here's a screen
shot:

When I'm creating control points I spend very little time
on any part of this GUI except the two images. The list of
control points, the gui control dialog, and even the image
selector element of the GUI are pretty much unused
(I normally have auto add turned off, but have memorised
the 'a' shortcut :-).

In order to give me more screen real estate for "the real
work" I'm doing could there be an alternate GUI;
displaying nothing but the two images and their scroll bars?

This mode would be entered from the normal mode by a button,
but it would be important that there be a short cut (e.g. tab,
the short cut for disabling/enabling much of the GUI in Gimp
and Photoshop).

Working then becomes:

use GUI to set up session, including first two pictures
to make control points for.

Disable GUI.

while(not done) {
    create 4-8 control points
    Enable GUI, move to next picture pair, disable GUI
}

If there were also a short-cut for "move to next pair", and (presumably)
move back, I would normally not need the full GUI at all.
