Hi All,

What exactly is meant by batch jobs with respect to scanners? And what
all source options are valid for batch job capability?

Why doesn't SANE have a standard for source option names? Wouldn't it
become easier for everybody, whether backend or frontend, if the
source options have standard names and there is a flexibility to add
new names depending upon whether it already exists or not?

And since we do not have a standard, is it possible that the options
is saneopts.h is also not respected by various scanner drivers?

Thanks,
Mohit
