           Summary: Why does digikam do anything to Thumbnails if tags are

I am not reporting a bug!

This is just me being curious. I have a similar problem Mikkel Kludder, many of
my images have hierarchical keywords in IPTC. Everytime I read their metadata I
end up with multiple copies of the same keyword in different parts of my
hierarchy. All I did was consolidate one of these keywords on 41 images.
Digikam is now running a process titled "Thumbnails", which has stopped me
doing anything for several minutes. What is this process actually doing? These
images already have thumbnails.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Change Tags on several files
2.  
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
Digikam displays a message to show that it haas written the keywords, but the
process indicator remains active and clicking on its up arrow shows that it is
processing Thumbnails. No other actions are allowed until all processes have
finished.

EXPECTED RESULT
Digikam writes metadata and is then ready to perform another task.
BTW The display telling one to wait until tasks have finished is inconsistent.
It is possible to change tags on images, but not possible to move, or merge
tags.
