To do this with the offending albums I would have to find which albums don't
use embedded cover art and embed it using music software that does display the
embedded cover art over the image file, which is silly to me personally.

I totally understand the perspective however and thanks for elaborating
further, but I expect the software to do the heavy lifting for me with
organising my collections. Strawberry does this though it's interface isn't as
slick as Elisa's, but I guess I'll just stick to that, especially when I'll
have to use that to embed the cover art in the first place.

Thanks for explaining the rationale, Elisa is great but just doesn't seem to
fit my I suppose edge case.

I think this sort of thing is too esoteric to add an option for, especially
because there are three potential superior solutions:
1. Standardize on cover files by removing embedded album art everywhere
2. Standardize on embedded album art by deleting the cover files everywhere
3. Remove the cover files for any albums with embedded album art

Ultimately this bug only affects people with messy music libraries, and the
solution is to clean up your music library. :) 

For your specific use case, it sounds like #3 is the best. Just delete the
cover files that are causing this problem.

I see. I think that's disappointing, as users that set the image themselves are
being punished by this, such as music collectors. It's also not feasible to
change the layout of a music library if one uses multiple music players, so
moving the offending albums into a separate folder isn't exactly feasible in
this case.

I see what you mean about a regular user use case, but is there any reason why
this couldn't be a toggle? This problem is preventing me from using Elisa which
is the only reason I am trying to make my point on this so hard :-)

Not sure if one is really objectively better than the other; we have to use one
by default and fall back to the other. But IMO there is at least some logic to
using a separate image first since that's easier for the casual user to change,
add, or remove.
