Offline dvd and cdrom thumbnails browser

This is something that will make Xnview the best free visual browser around!
Just add to the program the feature to be able to browse a dvd-cdrom pictures offline!
Since I don't speak English very well I will explain using and example:
Put a dvd in your pc. Start Xnview and click "Create dvd thumnail index". In the option you choose if you want to store: pictures thumbnail, videos thumbnail etc. You choose to scan all the dvd or only a few forlders and subfolders of this dvd
Xnview will read the dvd and will save all the files you choose to scan (pictures, videos etc) saving thumbnail and other information fo these files.
At the end you will have a "virtual dvd" structured in folders and subfolders containing thumbnails of your pictures.
You can scan hundreds of medias. They will be in a separate page called "offline" (for example where are also fovourite, categories, folders etc.). This offline catalog should be only one file on oyur harddisk so it's very easy to backup!
For example could be a zip files conatining all the thumbnails.
Using "search" you can look for a specific file name in your dvds and immediately see the thumbnail so you will be sure that the picture is the one that you want.
Wonderful isn't it? I dream Xnview doing this!!
