(Nautilus Nautilus 2.28.1, AMD64)
Same or similar problem:
Some folders will randomly stop displaying thumbnails.
Selecting the folder on the left side tree view gives a blank display on the 
right side and a spinning cursor.
Deleting files from /.thumbnails has no positive effect. At best when I view 
the folder again, I get thumbnail place holders but no thumbnails.
I looked to see if it was a mime problem, but on my system there is no 
.local/share/mime folder as suggested above.

The only oddity about these folders is when I use gThumb to view files, it 
leaves a /.comments folder with an xml file I can not open.
So far the only semi cure I have for this is a reboot. 
Then at least once I can view the files / thumbnails within the folders. 
Anytime there after, I can expect a blank view to appear.

This directory is hung up at the moment:

>From the terminal, if I launch gthumb, then view each file, I get this output

This is probably what is making the unreadable .comments/<name>.xml
I assume exif tags would have nothing to do with making thumbs though.........
