Feature request: multiple pages document to PDF scanning #1

I propose a feature to scan to (multi-page?) PDF, with a simple option of 'add another page?'

If I'm not wrong current implementation of sane does not support PDF but I have used the 'hack' below successfully (by piping to ps2pdf)

scanimage -p --resolution 250 --mode Gray -x 210 -y 297 | pnmtops -imageheight 11.7 -imagewidth 8.3 | ps2pdf - output.pdf

and then pdfunite *.pdf multipage.pdf to merge pages into a single multi-page PDF document.

I think this goes hand in hand with Sheet Feeder (ADF) support!
