  > At the very least, this patch should have changed the label in the Confirmations tab from "Show previews for:" to "Show previews in the view for:", to fix the inconsistency Mark pointed out.
  
  Sure, I can do that: https://phabricator.kde.org/D15216
  
  > But I think we should *not* ignore disabled thumbnailers, at all. If I want to disable JPG previews for whatever reason, dolphin should not think it knows what I want better than I do.
  >  That said, I agree that showing a big placeholder icon in the tooltip is not useful. But we need to find a better solution.
  
  Please come up with a better idea - something which doesn't involve more user configuration...
  Maybe a new property for thumbnailers which describes whether they are useful for smaller previews?
  
  > (btw, dolphin already ignores disabled thumbnailers for folder previews, which is also equally bad).
  
  Not anymore: https://phabricator.kde.org/D15096 and https://phabricator.kde.org/D15097
