Right now Thunar only generates thumbnails (on-demand, which is good). It should also use the cache API provided by tumbler to e.g. delete a thumbnail when a file is removed or to copy/update the thumbnail when a file is copied. Stuff like that. That needs integration of ThunarThumbnailer in various jobs which is not too complicated. | Right now Thunar only generates thumbnails (on-demand, which is good).

Tumbler will play an important role in Thunar once the GIO branch has been merged. The JPEG and font thumbnailers built into ThunarVFS will need to be rewritten as tumbler plugins. We also need an additional plugin to load and execute custom ThunarVFS thumbnailers for backwards compatibility reasons. | Tumbler will play an important role in Thunar once the GIO branch has been merged.
