This is interesting to use on encrypted media to avoid leaking thumbnails of documents into $HOME which may be cleartext. In fact, as we do this today, this is somewhat important to fix as some people might call it a grave security bug. I've added the 'security' keywork just in case; feel free to remove it.
Will attach patches against gio, gvfs and libgnomeui to implement this.
