Wanting to verify this, I noticed that something broken my SANE setup.

Therefore I take back what I said about flegita: it does seem to support
the net backend for SANE. So do xsane and gscan2pdf.

Of these three, gscan2pdf would seem to wins hands down both for
usability and usefulness, from my point of view. For example, flegita
doesn't seem to have an obvious way to preview the scanned pages, before
they're saved to disk.
