We are thinking of it, but not sure yet.
Generally the size of thumbnail is dictated by the theme, so the size of thumbnails is the option of a theme, not the entire store. X-Cart 4 has such settings, but most of 3rd party skins disregard them.
As for thumbnail quality, there are two sides of the coin, some merchants want lower quality, small images, some want high quality and do not care about size. That is why we implemented it in a way to cover the general majority of users (as we felt) and now are getting feedback about what is good and what can be improved. At this point, you can easily apply the mod, so your thumbnails would not be that much resized + you can register an idea about high quality thumbnails.
As for retina images, I believe, it should implemented as a mod and X-Cart allows to define you two images for a single thumbnail in order to server retina needs.

Also, there could be 2 thumbnails generated, with one displayed to standard screen and one to retina display screens.
