Mhm...
- I think we left "Load Image Layer" as other programs often do have 
different items for load raster and load vector. This function also uses 
the old image loader implementation.
So from a usability perspective I am not sure if the user may actually 
expect such a menu item?
- Also, as Load Image layer may do something different (at least 
something different that load sextante raster image), we need to check 
first what actually is different.
So, mhm.. bringing things together may be good, but then Load Datasets, 
is also again something else, w.r.t. to Databases, I think? Or was this 
also useful for indexed shape files? If not it could be also renamed to 
"Load from Database"? well, well....
we obviously progressed quite a bit and we forgot to check for 
slight/duplications and unifications.

cheers,
stefan
