missing `thumbnail` field and method for canister metadata

ozwaldorf opened this issue · comments

We currently do not have a defined way to store the thumbnail or a url reference to the thumbnail in ICRC-1. Might be beneficial to include icrc1:thumbnail as a reserved key for the metadata. In addition, like the other metadata, we should probably also include a icrc1_thumbnail method

Unfortunately, demanding new icrc1_* methods is undesirable because it breaks backward compatibility: an existing compliant implementation suddenly stops being compliant.

Adding new metadata keys should be fine, as long as they use the icrc1: prefix: such an extension does not invalidate any compliant code.
