Description
I wondered if it were possible to add a configuration option which allows adding previews of uploaded files to the notifications and notification emails.
Instead of the generic .svg for a file, it would be nice to have a thumbnail, especially for media content. For photos & videos, an inline preview image for the email notification would be the best.
For files like office documents, a file type icon like already used in the web UIi would be nice.

Research direction
Begin by tracing the notification and notification-email entry points described in the issue, then compare the existing web UI file-type icon behavior. Define how configuration controls previews for uploaded files, including thumbnails or inline images for photos and videos and file-type icons for office documents. Done means the configured previews appear in both notifications and notification emails.
