Short answer: no. We -dont- want thunar (and thus Xfce4 desktop) to depend on a gazillion of gnome libs. It's intended to be a fast & efficient file manager, especially for light desktops. Enabling gnome thumbnailing brings in those libs, so the switch is explicitely disabled. Regards, -- Yves-Alexis
