Description

On Desktop its very convience to save the preview setting (lists/thumps) and in our case a costumized icon for the directory

[Desktop Entry]
Icon=./.directory.png

[Dolphin]
PreviewsShown=false
Timestamp=2022,10,26,7,47,44.532
Version=4

It would be very nice to use the settings especially the icon settings in nextcloud too

Research direction

Start by clarifying which settings and clients are in scope and locating their existing preview and icon handling. Done should mean the agreed settings work consistently across the selected clients.
