Running it again is faster (presumably it's not regenerating the cached
thumbnails, though it still prints all of the names) and ends with the
same traceback.
This appears to have been mentioned, but not responded to, elsewhere:

(It looks like that's followed by release discussion, but just thought
I'd still add the "doesn't work out of the box" data point.)
