Okay, theory time:

1) Looks like ODF 1.2 was released at the end of september, 2011
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDocument)

2) From what I can tell, Office 2013 was the first rev to (really) support ODF
1.2:

http://www.h-online.com/open/news/item/Microsoft-Office-15-to-support-ODF-1-2-1560464.html
http://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/9504/ms-office-2010-not-opening-doc-files/

3) ODF documents created w/later LO revs are probably in ODF 1.2 format


RESULT: Assuming that MS-Office is the tool that's driving the previews in
Windows Explorer, this explains why you (w/Office 2010) aren't seeing modern
ODF documents w/previews, and why Beluga (w/Office 2013) is.

Solution?  Aside from upgrading MS-Office, I'm not sure. I wonder if there's a
way to get LibreOffice to provide the previews...
