--- Comment #58 from Jens <jens-bugs.kde.org at spamfreemail.de> ---
I think modifying the thumbnail is essential here, otherwise it's not obvious
that this is actually a group. An additional icon or *only* the background will
not do.

But if the thumbnail size cannot be changed or causes other headaches, how
about a folded-corner effect like this one here?:

The corner should not cover half the thumbnail of course, but it must be
clearly visible and obvious in all thumbnail sizes (and the corner might even
contain the number of grouped images). I would be willing to trade my original
"rotated image frame stack" idea for this one. and it might be easier to
implement because the thumbnail size doesn't change.

Bonus points if the folded page corner actually displays the lower right bit of
the *second* grouped image, maybe brightened up a little to differentiate it
from the main thumbnail. :-)

What do you think?
