Video showing files being created

SUMMARY
When /tmp is open in Dolphin, it creates an apparently non stop set of files;
these appear to be thumbnails for images in Places. It's very annoying that it
does this in /tmp (rather than, say, /tmp/dolphin-thumbnails), because it makes
finding files in /tmp very difficult if not impossible, and it appears to be a
bug that it's constantly generating them.

See attached video.
