If I download a generic epub without a seperate cover image then the device uses the first page of the epub as the cover. If that first page contains white at the edges then so will the resulting cover, I don't see any way to avoid that without causing a lot of complaints that covers which are supposed to have white at the edges are not being rendered properly.

For example what would the device be expected to do with a cover like this? http://subterraneanpress.com/store/p..._objects_ebook
