Bug Description

Support for displaying thumbnails of web pages has just been added in trunk (revision 220).

With the current implementation, there is no size limit for the thumbnail cache, meaning that it might end up using a considerable amount of space in the user’s home directory.
There should be a mechanism to limit the size of the cache and trim the oldest thumbnails when the limit is reached.
