> Implement an Capture Script in CamSelectDialog button which would allow

> This button has three states :
>     - Open Capture Script
>     - Loaded
>     - Stop the execution of current capture script
> 
> When being clicked in open state, present them with a QFileDialog to

"When clicked in an open state, present the user with" ...

> allow user to select a single file. When the script is loaded the button

"to allow selecting a single file." ...

> displays "Loaded", the script has not been verified yet. Verifying the
> script and executing it happens after user presses Ok.
> 
> Introduce a queueCount_ to keep track of the requests queued.
> 
> When stopping the execution of the capture script the queueCount_ is not
> reseted and the capture is continues as it is (i.e it is not stopped or

s/reseted/reset/

s/capture is continues/capture continues/

> restarted).
> 
> Requests are queued with any controls the script matching the current
> queueCount_.

I fear that creating a new dialog box every time we choose a camera
means that every call here leaks at least a CameraSelectorDialog
allocation, *and* because we're connecting more signals - we're going to
end up with duplicted signals?
