It would be nice if there's a solution project files also, then we can move the project around where we want.

This is a personal preference: copy or do not copy the resources. My preference is to *not* the resources, but I guess others do not follow this.

But this is a different subject from the thumbnail problem. If the thumbnail problem is solved by using a relative path in the project file, Openshot will be more flexible than it was, regarding moving project files.
