I have noticed only recently - with the first 7.1.0 betas IIRC - that some of my thumbnails are replaced by a black square in the lists and as a "broken link" icon in other contexts – see the two attached pictures. The bug is still there with 7.2.0.
By shortening the names of a few directories and updating the library, these reappear. In the first attached picture most of the icons where black squares before shortening the name of the enclosing directory. now only one remains black, and you can see that the name of the directory is quite long. I use sometimes deeply nested structures and long file names. I do not know what the limit currently is (I am going to dig into the source code) but I guess that a change to, say, max 256 (or 255...) characters for the full path should solve all cases except the weirdest.
