screenshot of dolphin window with preview enabled

I originally filed this bug thinking it was specifically related to the desktop
thumbnail previews.  The images that I posted above were taken of the KDE3
desktop.  Since I'm now using KDE4 I wasn't aware that it was even possible to
enable thumbnail previews in a folder view widget.  If I right click in a
folder view widget and click 'folder view settings' it doesn't give me any
option to enable previews so I'm not able to test this bug on the KDE4 desktop.
 Is it possible to enable 'folder view widget' thumbnail previews?

However as it turns out it also occurs in Dolphin with Preview enabled.  If I
open a folder in Dolphin (with Preview enabled) that contains a 24-bit png file
and then type "mogrify -monochrome *.png" from the terminal then the thumbnail
image never updates.  I can hover over it to show the correct black and white
image in the preview area to the right, but the thumbnail never updates unless
I click reload in the Dolphin window.  I've also tried converting a 24-bit png
image to b/w from within GIMP and the same issue occurs.
