special-purpose executable and hands off workd to do via ipc (well the exe
connects back to e's ipc port actually but either way - same thing). it can
actually launch any numebr of thumbnailers - the default is 2, but this means
it can make full use of smp systems. i need to make this # of thumbnailers
configurable and add a config dialog for it. this does mean thew bg/theme
etc. dialogs pop up much faster as they dont load all the thumbs to start -
its farmed off and ipc tells us when they are ready (and if already generated
- thats pretty damn fast). :) anyway - now thumbnailing works reliably
(thoguh i think the queue handling isnt quite that good - well when it comes
to interacting with efm... but i'll check into that later. dont worry though
- it does actually generate all the thumbs - it just may be busy generating
ones you don't see while it catches up).
SVN revision: 23750
- add queue / dequeue calls to e_thumb
- change e_icon_layout to e_icon_grid
- add e_icon_canvas which will eventually allow for free icon placement and optimized scrolling using a tiles principle
- add new calls to e_widget_image
- add new bg selector (broken because of a segv on cancel press, needs fixing)
NOTES:
- bg selector needs fixing.
- efm still needs work, will segv if you scroll while files are generated
- other efm bugs exist so I would advise that you dont use it atm
- if we dont need e_icon_grid (strict grid layout) we should remove it.

but works better now, and e now falls back to lookign for startup info and
app instances etc. to try find an icon, and finally uses the icon provided by
the app itself (netwm icon only) :)
