My idea would be to store docdata (maybe including thumbnails) hashed by the
file name/path/content, and encrypted with a hash of the file content, so they
can only be read with read access to the document file (or a copy of it).
To delete old docdata files, there could be a list of the last 5000 used
docdata files. This list is updated every time a file is opened/closed, and
those docdata not anymore in the list are deleted. Those docdata which are so
old that they leave the “Open Recent” list, are stripped from their thumbnail.
But this way, there wouldn’t be a reliable way to detect duplicate docdata
files.
