Interesting ... I did not think 1.6.x is still in use.
Afaik as well for 1.6.x there as well should be some file
~/.config/Thunar/accels.scm, which can edited 'by hand', like described
on the Wiki page.
(I suppose that hover-feature was somewhat lost with gtk3, though not
sure on that)

Well, it's a development version, no surpise on that. Though actually on
arch there is already a package for it:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/thunar-devel
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/exo-devel (etc.)
