Folder and shortcut thumbnails

Display folders as thumbnails like Explorer (use the folder.* image in the folder). Preferably folder.png, or otherwise folder.jpg, or if neither of those exist folder.gif, otherwise folder.bmp... and if no folder.* image file exists, use some other image file in the folder.

A related bug is that shortcuts are also not displayed as thumbnails. This is a useful feature which can let you effectively prowse the same image in two different directories (while we eagerly await WinFS and the end of hierarchical filesystems).
