We need to find the magic way to do this. I'm looking at some denoising to be run before sharpening, maybe this will help. Any ideas are welcome :)

I think, denoising and sharpening should be independent of each other and
user-selectable, so denoising an image by default when sharpen it, might not be
the best idea? Using standard USM parameters might be more transparent to the
user. Or have a table with different USM parameters for different ISO settings
within the program logic - but I don't know if you did implement USM code.
I've tried to put threshold into the sharpen function:

I tested it with some rather hard sharpening and it does seem to work, but it does creates some odd artifacts. There must be a way to handle this. But first, is this patch better or worse?
