Title:
  UI: assistant leaves user confused about step to perform after loading
  images

Status in Hugin:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When using the assistant, the user begins loading the images with the
  proper button, the first.

  The second button is Align, the third Create panorama

  However, it seems that when images are loaded, they are aligned too.

  So, when the user has loaded the images, he/she gets them aligned, and
  he is confused whether he/she should press the align button or go
  straightforward with the Create panorama one.

  I think that the right thing is - provided that the preview is
  satisfactory - to create the panorama. However, if the user has
  changed something (projection, move, drag, etc), he/she should realign
  the images before creating the panorama.

  All this stuff isn't clear in the ui. I thing it would be better that
  after loading the photos with first button the second button remained
  grayed and unusable until something that requieres realigning is
  performed.

  Something even better would be to have a fool-proof assistant which
  directly creates the panorama without changing anything. This could be
  the most user-friendly use level, and it would gain hugin much more
  users
