Inside of every ODT, ODP, ODS, etc... is a thumbnail, but ubuntu does not show it for the icon, nor does it create its own, it just shows a generic "text file", etc...

any chance that thumbnails of ODF files will be in ubuntu soon?

(windows supports it of open office is installed :p)

I think that's a GNOME thing.

===some time passes===
Just found this:
