Lorenzo,

thanks for your suggestion.  Today, Shotwell allows you to choose any 
external editor which has registered itself as handling the MIME types 
that represent images.  In other words, Shotwell lets you choose any 
editor which shows up in the "Open With" context menu when you right 
click the image file in Nautilus.  We agree that it would be nice to be 
able to choose other editors as well - we have a ticket for this at 
http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/2014 .  This won't make 0.6, but hopefully 
we'll get to this before too long.
