Bug Description
By default Ubuntu/Nautilus show thumbnails for pictures, videos and even PDF files. On OpenDocument-files it only shows the Filetype-Icon, which is not very useful.
So why not integrate a thumbnailer for OpenDocument-Files like text documents or spreadsheets?
I am using the python script from here http://
This is very useful to get a faster overview of a folder and it would be nice, if you don't have to install it manually on a new Ubuntu every time.

This is not simply a matter of enabling a latent but inactive feature in Nautilus, but there is existing python code (link is in the description) that could possibly be made an extension to Nautilus, or else ported as a simple patch. This would improve usability nicely, and if it turns out to be easy to fix, would be a good paper cut.
