Well, one way to get what you want is to "export" the images you developed in 
DT to the same folder as where the RAW files are stored. In that way, the 
current versions of Digikam will take care of generating the thumbnails and 
store them, without any change in how either program works.

And digikam will still have one image file or video per thumbnail stored. And 
grouping on extension should still work as well.
