Yes, this code should be unified too.

Yes, I have a more or less working code for Clutter based renderer. I will 
just add an option to switch between clutter and the old renderer and then I 
will push it to master for wider testing.

Then I think about implementing a Clutter Actor for Geeqie image - with exif 
orientation, color management, caching... and then it will be possible to 
rewrite the Pan View. But at the moment I am out of ideas for high-level 
desing, so volunteers are welcome :-)

IIRC there is a bug report about a panorama with dimensions 40000x6000.

OK :)
