--- Comment #4 from ykui <yumekuineru at hotmail.com> ---
Perhaps I could try, though I do not have high hopes. 
My main idea is to check the last modified date and delay (timeout? idle?)
files that were modified less than a second ago. 
This would maybe affect large files like videos though (would it be a problem
to not have thumbnails for those until they are completed/have gone a short
time without being written to?)
Perhaps requiring that if a file is not in the cache (already has a thumbnail
(?)) that it must wait a second or so, in case the problem is that the partial
file completes writing before the thumbnail is generated, so that a new
thumbnail is never requested. 

The less internals that would have to be touched the better though, dbus does
not seem like a healthy past-time.
