Public bug reported:

The gallery appends Date.now() to the end of the image://thumbnailer URI
used to load photo thumbnails in order to avoid showing thumbnails for
old versions of a file.

Unfortunately this means we never get any hits from the QML image cache,
and the image needs to be reloaded more often than needed.  Instead it
should use a value for the "at" parameter that only changes when the
file content changes.
