Some people are visual thinkers. I'm one of them. There have been plenty of times where I am searching for something, and know what it looks like, but can't think of related text to find it. This hasn't happened to me in calibre yet, but I've certainly experienced this problem when using my computer and in real life.

I imagine a cover browser that would show thumbnails of all of the covers would make for a good, simple plug-in project.
