Sure, but such an operation would probably best ship with gnome scan
initially, and perhaps be moved over to the core GEGL distribution if
at a later point it is deemed to be generally useful. To speed the
process toward getting a stable operation API, helping out with
cleaning up and refactoring the existing Operation API as well as
cleanups within the core would be welcome.
