Just pointing that the spec URI referenced widely on this bug report now is a
403. However, another copy can be found here:
http://people.freedesktop.org/~vuntz/thumbnail-spec-cache/

Also, on the freedesktop.org wiki, the Thumbnail spec is listed under the
header "Draft specifications that are new and not yet widely used, though they
may be used by one or more desktops or desktop applications". Considering that
this spec is still considered "draft" after more than 7 years of inactivity, I
believe KDE should drop this and take a particular approach to care about
thumbails, which could also be very well documented and publicized so others
can adhere to it if they want. Or look for another already published
specification used by a third party and implement the same functionality.

IMHO blaming a 2004 draft spec for a bug still open in 2011 is pointless.
