LrC doesn't import all RAWs from XQD card unless all previews were loaded

When I click “Import” in the import dialog right after it opened and when not waiting until all files (and miniatures) were loaded in the import grid view, the import apparently only imports those files where the miniature/preview was loaded.

    … and when not waiting until all files (and miniatures) were loaded in the import grid view

    What did you do in LrC at this point when you are not waiting?

    Nothing, just watching the progress bar and waiting for the import to complete!

    This problem still occurs and I can reproduce it!

    In the latest Version of LrC 15.5, the import does not import images where previews are not yet loaded in import dialog. This behavior is different to previews versions, where no matter whether a preview was loaded, an images was imported. As I do not use the import dialog to (pre-) select images, I used to click on “Import” as soon as the button was active. For memory cards with thousands of pictures, waiting for all previews to be loaded makes not much of a sense and when clicking import, only importing those with a preview loaded is a misleading functionality. I’ve verified this new behavior 3 times with different memory cards from different cameras.
