I think it depends on your workflow. Your method is probably faster for you and my method is better for me. You are doing a lot of pre-process work to your EPUB so you already know what you are getting when you unpackage the file. I thought you had a very good suggestion, and I will have to try it in the future.
I manage my library with Sony Reader Library and not calibre. Many of my books have DRM, and often purchased books don't come with pretty cover images so I have to look them up. If I'm not doing all that pre-process work to change the CSS and metadata, then all I have to do is right-click the image in goodreads and download the file.
