Eh? it's exactly what my patch is doing. it shows the zoom factor 
relative to the real size of the image. If you call "real size" to the 
file size at least.

Digikam currently shows it versus the preview size, not versus the real 
size.

Not sure if I explained it right. Go Settings->Configure Digikam -> 
Album View Settings-> and disable "Embedded preview loads full image 
size". It should be disabled by default (digikamrc removed)

Now open any image, and set zoom to 100%. See the size. Now, right click 
and select "edit". It will open with showfoto. Set showfoto to 100% too.

It's much larger, right? Well, my patch makes both be the same when the 
zoom factor is set to 100%. But if you see at 100%, the image in digikam 
(not in showfoto) is smudged, because it uses a preview. So, I have 
added the detail (magnified) to make it non-confusing.
