Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Only the first/oldest image under the root of a dataset is used for thumbnail for dataset and collections. If images within folder or nested folder exists, but no image under the root, currently there is NO thumbnail.

Describe the solution you'd like This could be improved by qualifying ALL images within a dataset/collection as candidate for thumbnail.

Describe alternatives you've considered To be have more desirable features, we could even introduce a mechanism that allow use to choose which image to use as thumbnail
