Agreed: redundancy in analyses helps double-checking, and overcoming eventual bugs.
The filtering mechanism in Sextante makes redundancy far less confusing than the
usual dropdown menu approach.
So I vote for moving all algorhithms to Sextante, and removing GDALTools and fTools
only when the former is well tested.
Thanks.
