The implementation has been improved recently for bug 131850 by removing the
encryption check. 

Yet there are still some more or less corner cases left: files on a slow
network storage, access via slow connections, unexpected number of files etc.
The correct solution is to separate the loading of files (actually thumbnails)
from the interaction, which requires to be done in an extra thread. And not
knowing what files exists on the target must not block the interaction too. 

Could be an interesting GSoC project.


Reading templates from the program directory makes not much sense.
