Package: digikam
Version: 0.7.2-4
Severity: wishlist

  I noticed when copying some images from a USB mass storage camera using 
digikam that digikam loaded the images twice: once to calculate the 
thumbnails, then again to actually copy them.  As it takes several minutes to 
transfer a full memory card off my camera, I would appreciate it if digikam 
could cache the images when it reads them to generate thumbnails, then just 
write the cached copies out to disk at the appropriate time.  (e.g., 
speculatively copy them into a temporary directory within the digikam 
pictures directory, then use rename(2) to move them into place when the user 
decides where to put them).
