*raiseshand*

Eye of GNOME uses the thumbnailer as well (we need to be able to
thumbnail without nautilus). But it should be no problem to C&P this bit
(just 2 files I think) between nautilus and eog. One could also think
about reanimating the once proposed d-bus-based thumbnailer[1] if more
users show up.
