Movida import wizard
I have been playing around with the new QWizard class in Qt 4.3 and it’s a pretty useful piece of code 
As you can see from the screenshot, it’s being used to create a standard movie import wizard for Movida. Plugins (like the IMDb & co. import wizard I’m working on) will be able to use this widget for their own import routines, providing a consistent user interface between different import plugins.
The SVN doesn’t contain the updated code yet because of some bugs that need to be fixed.
The current version of QWizard (Qt 4.3.0 beta snapshots) is quite flexible even though there is no (easy) way to handle pages that need to do some long processing. I was trying to either disable the back button or ask the user for confirmation when the query is being sent to the Internet but there is no way to do this.
A suggestion has been sent to the guys at Trolltech and I hope they find it interesting enough to add this feature before the final 4.3 release.
