This is a packaging bug, nautilus (packaged as an RPM) should depend on the
thumbnailers for the formats it wants to show thumbnails for. For example,
out-of-the-box, there's no thumbnailers for epubs but there's one for comic
books and PDFs.

Those are the only 2 options if we want to make things better. Your example
of something else would still require fixing the automatic codecs installation
flow.
