You realise that displaying (part of) an image @ 100% implies (down-)loading 
the whole image? You might still avoid downloading all the raw files, but the 
gain is less than you probably expect. In addition, displaying @ 100%  would 
only work for jpegs, unless you also want a raw workflow in the import module.

Also, filtering in other digikam modules uses the database. And images aren't 
in the database until they are imported/downloaded.
