--- Comment #5 from Zenopheus <mrvoid...@yahoo.com> ---
Similarity detection is great but completely useless for people starting out
with DigiKam who have *lots* of duplicates. I bet this is a large majority of
people especially if they use PhotoMove to structure there files (is preserves
duplicate images).
I don't understand why this is up for debate after 8 years. I have 100K images
from merging multiple collections together. Thousands of them are 100%
duplicates. It is impossible to delete them manually. I don't care what folder
they are in, I just want them gone.

This isn't difficult. Here's are two possible solutions. Both would be trivial
to implement. The last one would at least allow the issue to be addressed
externally.
1. Two new similarity options:
[ ] Use largest image as reference image
[ ] Hide reference images from results
Checking these options would allow a person to select all "Ref. Images" on the
left and then select all images on the right and then press delete. This
doesn't work now because the reference image is displayed on the right side and
may or may not be the largest (largest megapixel) image.
2. Allow the user to export the duplicate list of images to a csv file with
some meta information and file path. This way I could write a script to delete
duplicates myself. I could then choose to remove jpgs instead of cr2 or images
with smaller megapixel sizes.
