[Shotwell] Shotwell Duplicates not loaded

When I first open Shotwell and pick the photos to import, when it is
finished, it gives a report saying something like "XXX duplicate images not
imported and YYY not imported" .. because something was wrong with them. It
then lists several images and ends with "... and ZZZZZ others).

I don't really want duplicated images, but all too often, it loads the
poorest quality ones. For example, if there are some full resolution TIFF
images, and the same ones as full resolution JPEG, and another set of low
resolution JPEG for E-Mail, and Thumbnails for them, it will often load the
lowest resolution version. Is there a way to set it so that if there are
duplicate images like this, it will pick the highest resolution ones?

I am using Shotwell version 0.9.3 with XUbuntu 11.04.

Thanks for your help.

Murray
