Voting against this in it's current form: tried it and removed it after short time.

- The thumbnail background is transparent and it looks unreadable in any other view than nautilus window with white background (ex. Desktop with wallpaper).

- Most spreadsheet previews look meaningless and one has to look explicitly at file extension to identify the type of file, which is much better reflected by the default icon. Presentations, Drawings and some text document may look better and more distinguishable.

(if Nautilus would at least zoom the preview with mouse over, like it's done in KDE ...)
