Ubuntu.Thumbnailer is a QML module that wraps the libthumbnailer library. It doesn't provide any QML components directly, but instead exposes a number of image providers that can be used with e.g. the standard QML Image component. For example, if you set "image://thumbnailer/$uri" as the source for your image component, you can have it display the a thumbnail of a video file, or the embedded cover art for a music file. And if you use "image://albumart/artist=xxx&album=yyy", it will display album cover art work downloaded from a network service and cached locally. Both of these are used by some of the default scopes on the dash and a few of the preinstalled applications.
