As already said: only HFOV is used by Hugin/Panotools.
So you can ignore focal length and crop factor in this case and input only HFOV.
So this proposal is not needed.

Title:
  Allow easy entry of focal length and hfov

Status in Hugin - Panorama Tools GUI:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  When the user knows the focal lengh and horizontal field of view (v),
  Hugin should either compute the crop factor or, if it is not otherwise
  needed, simply ignore it.

  Consider cylindrical panorama camera images, which have an arbitrary
  hfov unrelated to the lens and focal length, and for which 'crop
  factor' is usually not a meaningful piece of information.  At present,
  attempting to import such images is frustrating because when you enter
  the hfov hugin resets the focal length (based on irrelevant default
  crop factor of 1.0) and vice versa.  Instead, the crop factor should
  be computed automatically (if it is needed at all).
