@Leandro: I'll try that Plasmoid, looks interesting to me. @Anthony: Good thought, but I'd not like to transferred the focus to the preview window, automatically. Why? Because I could not just move the mouse pointer from one folder to another one, smoothly, in the main window. Instead, the mouse pointer would be teleported to the preview window, and I'd have to move it outside that window, before I could go on moving it to the next folder in the main window. However, if the behaviour you describe could be implemented without the preview window getting in one's way and without slowing down everything, it would really be very comfortable for the user. Good idea!
