Thumbnail issue. Configuration member & Import from file

Inv 2012 SP2 update 3.

We want to have in our Vault Items for some things (informative thubmnails, Properties etc).

It seems no direct way exist to control Item thumbnails (http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/Autodesk-Vault/Thumbnails/m-p/2620273#M30022) thus we do create some models with almost only function - ebmed thumbnail inside using "Import from file" option (no real geometry).

Some groups of those things look very similar (differ only in iProperties) thus we'd rater prefer to use iParts but it seems that Configuration members don't inherit thumbnail embedded to Factory (they show empty Inventor background). I gues this is because the are created using our corporate IPT template with "Active Component Iso View on Save" option as default.

Is there way to generate Configuration factory with Save setting of Configuration Factory (with thumbnail embedded to it)?
