To Ingo #10 :

Preview is for naviguate speedly between the image to make a selection, review, etc. We don't need real data here. Loading speed is important to toggle between image shortly.

With JPEG, we use reduced loading method from libjpeg
With RAW file, we use JPEG preview embeded in RAW data (reduced image used to display RAW pictures by camera to a TV)
With PNG and TIFF, the JPEG preview embeded in IPTC metadata (800x600)

Editor is to edit the picture. we need real image data here. Loading huge picture take a while (for ex. with RAW files)
