This is a spectacularly bad idea, but I guess this is one of those "avoid weeks of useless argument" situations. So, fine. I renamed "tumme" to "thumbnails". I found "image-dired" unsuitable because there would be functions called "image-dired-dired-next-line" and so forth (which can't be renamed "image-dired-next-line" because there is already such a function). Also, tumme was not *only* used with Dired. [Cue 1000 line essay by Drew Adams about why "thumbnails" is a poor choice of name. Whatever, dude.]
