The thumb factory still depends on GConf to be able to use gnome thumbnailers. That's somewhat overhead, esp. since GConf adds to the total startup time of Thunar. We need another way to use the thumbnailers.

Instead there's now an external program, which genera- tes an mmap()able file that contains a mapping between a mime type and the thumbnailer used to generate thumbnails for that mime type. Bug #2131.
