I added the ability to import selected pages from TIFF because a user
was having problems running out of space in tmp when gscan2pdf
extracted all pages.

As it is only one extra click, I see this as a very minor
inconvenience - the alternative being an option in preferences whether
to display the page selection dialogue or not.
