Tentatively yes. But be prepared for protests later :)

I think by default border is a bit too dark and wide. 

I achieved interesting results by replacing 128 in QColor declaration
with 96 and set radius to 3. IMO it integrates better - especially in
colored themes and when thumbnails are set to smaller images.
