Public bug reported:

Sometimes in video documentaries or animation an image is too large to
fit all at once, so the view is panned across. It's not a perspective
move, everything is flat. The frames can be stitched manually using
GIMP, but often there are slight defects, because pixels don't always
match up to the panning speed 1:1.

I tried to use Hugin to stitch, but it seems to be very camera-centric.
I could not figure out how to disable the perspective transformations or
the exposure changes. I also had to manually play around in the crop
window, because the auto-centering stuff just didn't work right.
Finally, it failed, telling me that a seam would be visible, and I
couldn't figure out how to override and force the output.

I request a wizard for stitching flat images, where all it does is
figure out the sub-pixel position of each image and then outputs the
entire uncropped image (no cropping, rotation, exposure, etc).

I could also see this wizard being useful if I wanted to scan in
something larger than my flatbed scanner and stitch it together into a
single image.

If all of this is already possible, I request documentation on how to do
it.
