#935: Preview Thumbnail regenerated unnecessarily

Comment (by stutty at gmail.com):
Alas I am very unfamiliar with the workings of the code, so my solution is
only a proposal. I did try your suggestion, but I still get pauses on
exiting the recording.
My only comment would be that:
In general for my system the only time I would want the frontend to cause
thumbnail generation is in the case where no thumbnail currently exists
(Although I would probably be happy with a blank in this case!). A
responsive GUI is more important than frame exact thumbnails to me.
Ideally thumbnail generation would be a background backend task such that
the frontend is never stalled waiting for the pixmap to be generated, as
seems to be the case at the moment.
