Description tomtomtomreportingin 2021-12-24 22:27:32 UTC 
SUMMARY
Thumbnails for recent projects are only generated once per session, as in, they do not properly update when the user saves changes for an already saved recent project. They will only update when the user initially saves the image or starts a new Krita session.

This does not apply to the file picker thumbnails. It seems to only apply to the Welcome Screen thumbnails and File -> Open Recent thumbnails.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a new image.
2. Make one stroke and save the image.
3. Observe thumbnail in File -> Open Recent.
4. Make another stroke and save.
5. Observe thumbnail in File -> Open Recent.

OBSERVED RESULT
The thumbnail in step 3 is still being used.

EXPECTED RESULT
There should be a new thumbnail from the modifications made in step 4, without having to restart Krita.

Yeah, I think we never invalidate the cached thumbnail when updating the recent file list.

I'll take this now since I'm touching this area of code.
