Sorry, that's just the way they do it!
Depending on the number of pics you are working on, why not just use Thunar to view thumbnails - use the Zoom in to make them big enough and just right click open with GIMP.
Alternatively you could use something like XnViewMP to check out previews and then configure it to open the file for editing with GIMP. https://download.xnview.com/old_versions...ux-x64.deb will get you the last but current version. The latest has moved to Qt5.6 something and it can cause issues depending on other qt libraries installed. I use it extensively for curating and bulk rename, resize jobs as well.
