I was considering making a Python/OpenCV module that could be used by Bitcoin Armory or Electrum. So instead of having to type long addresses / private keys you could just scan them in using your webcam.

Would this feature interest anybody?

Yeah I was planning this for my offline livecd based wallet as it can be a pain to type addresses in.
