Public bug reported:

Many digital cmeras, especially Ricoh and recent Panasonic ansd Olympus,
show levels on their screen to make it easier to hold the camera level,
which is very important for landscape and architecture shots.

Olympus and Ricoh have one horizontal level at the bottom to make
horizontal lines in the picture beine level and one vertical level on
the right side of the screen to make the optical axis level and so
vertical lines being vertical, especially with a wide angle lens.
Panasonic cameras have something like an artificial horizon in the
middle of the picture.

This would also be a great feature for Ubuntu's camera app, to not come
home with the Leaning Tower of Paris.
