Its a nice idea, but its hard enough spotting just the front cover as a 
file on disc, as there are so many conventions in use.

For internet look up, I thing we are limited to front covers only.

The idea of multiple covers is however handled nicely mp3 ID3 tags, 
which are designed to hold more than one cover with a "cover type", see 
bug 345975 for details:

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=345975

The idea of how to cope with multiple covers in the GUI was discussed on 
the mailing list if I recall correctly, and the general feeling was that 
it was just too complicated - supporting a single cover would be good 
enough for most people.
