[SOLVED] Thunar folder icon image preview?

Is it possible to get Thunar to show previews of the images inside of a folder on the folder thumbnail icon? I have been trying to determine this on and off for a few months now, but I can't find anything.

I would like this to happen automatically, not requiring a folder.jpg or otherwise manually selecting an image inside of the folder. Any idea if this is possible?

If it can (which I doubt) it is not documented http://thunar.xfce.org/documentation/C/

Thunar is a file manager for a minimalist DE - I wouldn't expect it to have all the bells and whistles...

That makes sense, I assumed it would take some sort of additional program to do it, I will check out some other file managers. I currently use Worker and Thunar, with Thunar only being used when browsing for media files. I should probably get something more full featured for that. I'll mark this as resolved, thanks!
