--- Comment #1 from chrysn at fsfe.org ---
This might become easier with the patch from
<https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/issues/654>. When that is applied, thunar
(or the thumbnailing component it uses) may not need to have any particular
knowledge of sh_thumbnails, but could simply use the thumbnail provided by
gio's thumbnail::path property. Only if that is absent, it'd need to trigger
thumbnail creation. (After it created a thumbnail, that property will be
present).

Using information from gio would (from my limited understanding of gio/gvfs)
have the additional benefit of allowing network backends to advertise available
thumbnails in-band in the future (eg. an ssh backend might advertise the
thumbnails in the remote ~/.cache/thumbnails, the http backend might do so
based on link metadata, and I'd figure gphoto2 could come up with something as
well).
