 Replying to [comment:12 leogermani]:
 > The thing with the second option is that if the user dont click on the
 regenerate button as soon as he changes the values, he misses the chance
 and have to change the values again if he wants to reprocess the images.
 Perhaps leaving the 2 actions can be good.

 Agree.

 > Now one question. If we decide on an ajax approach. How would it work
 whithout javascript? Do you think it could be a JS-enabled-only feature?

 Actually, the AJAX would only be used to update the status without
 refreshing the page. The crunching would be done in the background anyway.
 Withot JS, the user would just see a static notice: "Regenerating images:
 25% done." or something like that.
