No, it doesn't. Only 'reread metadata from image' works.

You can easily reproduce this bug, and it is even not necessary to open / close
digikam as I mentioned above:
0) create a folder with "picture 1.jpg" "picture 2.jpg" "picture 3.jpg" etc...
; to simply view an effect of this bug, say that all the pictures are in
landscape (orientation=top-left) and "picture 17.jpg" is in portrait
(orientation='left-bottom')
1) open digikam and view that album -> all OK
2) delete one picture (say "picture 15.jpg")
3) rename all the pictures (so that "picture 16" takes the place of deleted
"picture 15" etc...) (batch renaming program, for instance multiple renaming
from dolphin)
4) see what happens in digikam ...

PS: you have attached this bug to the "Thumbnails" component: for me it's not
really the thumbnails themselves: it's the fact that digikam associates to the
new "picture 16.jpg" information from the old "picture 16.jpg" (now "picture
15.jpg") etc.
The thumbnails are correct, I mean they are related to the correct picture, but
are eventually not correctly orientated (I can add that if you click on the
thumbnail to see the picture 'full screen', it is in the same way badly
orientated. Once again, only 'reread metadata from image' works).
