That's great.

Well, I was going to paste it in the thumbnail generator, but thanks for the
example code.

Great!

By the way, I notice that we already have video previews! Switch "Sound
files" on, mouse over a video, and you get the audio track.

It occurs to me we could call this "play multimedia on mouseover", create a
KVideoWidget over the icon when it starts playing, and have animated movie
icons! How cool would that be?
