I am not sure that it is right. I would only put image editors in 
that Group. Not a big deal.

(by exo-devel) but without version constraints. So it may make
sense to keep the versioned BR here.

i tried 
$ ristretto ristretto-screenshot.png

from
http://goodies.xfce.org/_media/projects/applications/ristretto-screenshot.png

and still a black main area. And even when i click on it
nothing happens.

Looks sane.

Ok. The mini images are shown, though.

Indeed, but I experienced sometimes different behavior when not in 
a desktop like gnome/kde/xfce, like
http://thunar.xfce.org/pwiki/documentation/faq
question
Why does Thunar display the fallback icon for all files and folders?
