[wishlist] video thumbnails

[∅]

we were asked for wishlists and applications and such for the next release [1] and a little discussion on the facebook group revealed that we can add video thumbnails without much effort. for one, we need to add the package ffmpegthumbnailer [2] which appears to be relatively lightweight. then adapting the suggestion from this ubuntu-based blog [3] we copy a "totem.thumbnailer" file [4] to /usr/share/thumbnailers. log out (or restart pcmanfm if you know what you're doing; i just did "killall pcmanfm && nohup pcmanfm --desktop --profile lubuntu &> /dev/null &") and you've got thumbnails. i should add there's a wishlist bug for this already [5].
