Configuration Profile to disable Icon Preview in Finder

I'm having a hard time creating a ConfigProfile that deactivates ONLY the icon preview of Finder of any view(symbol/list/column/cover flow).

I've previously tried to make it work with plistbuddy, which didn't always change the setting accordingly and am now trying to use Configuration Profiles using mcxToProfile. While it DOES deactivate the icon preview, it also sets the icon size and text size, which should NOT be changed, but whenever I delete those Values from the Profile it does not work at all anymore. Any ideas?

You might want to look over my post regarding mobileconfig files and the Finder Icon Preview issue I have discovered.
