This is why I let my cameras make raw and jpg. For the selection work 
the jpg's are way enough good.

Gilles, I think you misunderstood. Vincent does not want to change the 
raw workflow, but have a possibility to see larger displays of the 
embedded jpg. For selection purposes there is no need to start 
processing each and every image, when in the end most of them are never 
used/processed...
