There should be no difference between a cover image and any other image in an epub. Any such difference would be arbitrary and artificial. Reading systems are not required to use the guide element, and even if they were, ebook authors are not required to specify a cover page.

Hmmm... I'm not sure your thinking is necessarily sound here.
A "cover" probably should be treated as metadata, if technology allows. Are there reasons to avoid doing so? (Other than "it's not as easy for Sigil's users"?)
