If the memory stick contains many pictures/videos, the thumbnails generation
takes a very long time, and it is not possible to cancel... (although the
Cancel button is clickable). All the GUIs are frozen too.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Connect a memory stick / digital camera to your computer, then try to cancel
the generation of thumbnails...

Actual Results:  
All the digikam process is blocked, and cancelling doesn't work.

Expected Results:  
Create an other process and let the user to cancel it.

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.36-ARCH
Compiler: gcc
