P: Lightroom for iPadOS does not auto/background render/cache Original Photos

Issue:  When I have an album loaded for editing, I will select "Store Locally" as well as make sure that "Only download smart previews" is not selected to ensure I have downloaded the original pictures.

 

When I start editing the pictures (34MP RAW from a Canon R7), Lightroom will take ~3-4 seconds to load the picture.  I can see the Image type in the info panel change from "Preview" to "Smart Preview" to "Original".  If I've downloaded and processed the original pictures, Lightroom should load the Original copy automatically.    There should be a method to force Lightroom to render these pictures all at once, much like "Generate 1:1 Previews" exists in Lightroom Classic.

 

If I swipe from Picture 100 to Picture 101 and back again to Picture 100, the load from Preview to Original is almost instant, as it should be.  

 

Device: 5th-gen M1 12.9" iPad Pro - Model# MHNW3LL/A
