yes, but the thumbnails database must be regenerated from scratch with
the HdPI thumbnails settings turned on. If older DB file still here,
low resolution thumbnails will be used.

In thumbnail database file there are only wavelets thumbs stored, and
no more important information. It's safe to remove this sqlite file as
well and restart digiKam. File will be recreated.

perhaps,

I must take a look. In my TODO list.
