Comment (by fatigatti):
This is indeed happening on a very recent hrev (2 or 3 days old max). Good
to see there's already some hint about what the problem might be.
@humdinger, I like your proposal and I think it would make a nice feature,
but just to clarify things, this is happening even with the file closed
(you probably understood that and in that case I didn't say anything). An
open ShowImage process, on any picture on any folder is all it takes for
this to happen. Not monitoring opened files for changes is not ideal, but
I've definitely seen that before and can live with that. On the other
hand, double clicking a file just to get another...
