Public bug reported:

I have a pano that wasn't intended to be a pano. So the photographer
didn't pay attention to having identifiable "control points" in every
image. On some images the control points on the clouds work good enough.
It's all we have. Just don't run celeste, as it would remove all control
points.

Now with one image, even the clouds provide not enough hints. But there
is a sea stretching out to the horizon there... If that horizon is not
perfect it ruins the whole thing.

So... to fix this, I have to move control points and hope to predict the
direction in which Hugin will move my pictures around. It would be much
better if I could just manually place these two images relative to each
other.

I have considered using the gimp to overlap these two images and then
enter that as one into Hugin. But then I lose the exposure correction
and barrel distortion corrections that Hugin does for me.
