What about a kind of horizontal bar between toolbar and tabs? Containing 
the step buttons above the according tabs. This way it might be more 
obvious that this is a compressed form of the whole workflow and which 
tab to use if one wants to refine a certain step.
Due to different amount of space needed the exact positioning over the 
according tabs might not work, but a left-to-right order might be 
sufficient.
Maybe it should be possible to switch this "workfow bar" on and of to 
save display space.

Thinking about the correlation of buttons (steps) and tabs, it appears 
to me, that the crop function might not be properly placed on a tab of 
it's own. Maybe a dialogue accessible from the lens tab? (Then it might 
also be clearer that crop parameters are saved from the lens tab.)
