I'm curious - why are you saying, that this would make f-spot a
PITA for experienced users? If you just want to browse your photo
collection, all you'd have to do is to *NOT* hover of an image, so
that the bigger version isn't shown.

I actually would like to see his feature request be implemented.
But I think that the larger version of the image should not be
shown right away when hovering. Instead, there should be a small
delay (like 500ms?).

Where should they be listed?
