I talked about that with David Mosberger some month ago.The problem is that it<br>
would be necessary to repeately call the backend to test<br>
if the button was pressed. But that is a bad idea and there is no possibility in<br>
the<br>
sane-API that allows the backend to send any unrequested information to the<br>
frontend.<br>
<p>
So there is no good possibility to implement the button with the recent<br>
sane-api!<br>
