Or a .ivthumb file in the same directory as the images? Of course one
might not be able to write there, but it is closer to the images and
could be shared by multiple people using iv, is more naturally deleted
when the images are, etc.

Isn't this what Windows file browser does? (thumbs.db)

Is there a standard file format for this kind of thing? OIIO already
supports file formats which can store many named images. It might be
cool to use one of these so OIIO tools could actually
read/process/generate this file itself. (But iv would have to be
careful not to thumbnail it's thumbnail file if someone tried to view
it!)

What does a thumbnail of a image file with multiple image in it look like?
