I don't see that as a valid use-case. If the file can't be read, there is no thumbnail. So what would you be storing in the thumbnail cache? Since there is no cached thumbnail, there's no problem in knowing that you have to generate it when the file is readable. Unless the thumbnail spec allows for a negative cache -- I don't know the spec. If you want the thumbnail to be generated (for the first time) the moment you change permissions, that's a separate issue. That's an issue of the file manager that you're using to watch the files for permission changes. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago (AT) macieira.info - thiago (AT) kde.org PGP/GPG: 0x6EF45358; fingerprint: E067 918B B660 DBD1 105C 966C 33F5 F005 6EF4 5358
