We have a number of options here, we need to know what we want.

Using QImage is preview is good because converting to pixmap is faster, and we only need 8bit, no CM. Preview loading is currently optimized for the preview.

What are the requirements of LT? Do we need 16bit? Do we need CM?
If we do not need neither 16bit nor color management, QImage is still a good format. This is even more true if loading the full image is only an option, e.g. offered at high zoom rates (I could imagine that for preview as well, btw).

Then this would mean loading the full image, with optional progress feedback, but only to 8bit. Loading with DImg in 8bit, then converting to QImage. No problem.
