Thanks for this nice addition. It sure makes My Pictures much more useful.
And I really don't like wasting space just to show icons now and then.

I like the idea that it's configurable!
I would use #1, ie remove all small thumbs and use exif. For images without Exif thums, small thums could be created.

About #2: For me it would be enough if big icons were created (slowly) on the fly only when I choosen 'Big Icons' in certain directories. Exif thums would be enough most of the time.
I find it a big overkill with a 'thumb-database' like the music db, but maybe that is just me.

Ps. I tried reproducing idioteque 'it messed up my TV guide'. I once had the guide 'stuck' on top, without it being possible to remove. That happened only once so I am uncertain if it was the fault of the new windowplugin or not.

idioteque, please explain what/how it messed it up, so that it could be checked/fixed.
