I don't think it has much sense to keep thumbnail in the query as the benefits will come from not having any cover in global.db
Patch is quite simple now. See attached file.
It works without problems in the emulator.
Next steps:
1. write a tool (in vala) to copy images from db to fs, remove them from db and do a vacuum
2. test in the real DR with lots of books and compare
3. update other programs to copy new icons to fs instead of db
- mdbindex
- cover from uds
Btw, have a nice party tomorrow
I have a cooking day
