Version: latest git snapshot (using KDE 4.7.4) OS: Linux After deleting all the items from the Tools -> Clear Private Data... menu item, the home page thumbs in the favorites part of the new tab page do not restore. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Clear your history by using the "Clear Private Data..." menu item with all items (including the home thumbs) are checked. Then close Rekonq and open Rekonq. Actual Results: The Home Page Thumbs in the Favorites part of the new tab page are not restoring. Instead of thumbs of the favorite websites, I see empty frames with a small logo in the center. Expected Results: I would expect Rekonq to restore the thumbs of my favorite websites as in its previous versions.

You will have a button to update them when you want. ok?
I guess the button would work fine, although I was considering perhaps something like what opera 11.6 series do to restore home page thumbs, I had the impression that opera downloads minimally for restoring and the home page thumbs look quite functional and aesthetic (you just see the website logos instead of the whole website snapshots). I may be wrong though, I have very little to no experience with internet programming.
