Preview exposure adjustments when selecting images to import

When selecting which images to import when looking at thumbnail view it would be useful to be able to increase or decrease the exposure. Exposing for highlights often results in previews that are very dark, or if using ETTR, very light. Both can make it difficult to select which files should be imported. A simple exposure adjustment slider to bring the exposure up or down, would make deciding which files should be selected for import much easier.

Current workaround

At the moment, files that cannot be assessed because their previews are to dark or light to see properly need to be imported and then deleted after they are assessed post import.
