Yes, see:

    This may be a kinda controversial change, since it now defaults to
    using imagemagick for images, if you have support for imagemagick.

    But this makes it possible to browse a typical
    directory-of-images-from-your-camera just by hitting `n' a lot, without
    a lot of futzing around, so I think it's a net win.

    Perhaps there should be an option to disable it if it annoys people.
