The main problem I have with Calibre's cover browser, is that it is so SLOW! I have 7000 books, and it can take over 1 minute to go from one cover to the next.

And yes, in a brick and mortar store I would see the title on the spine, and if it interested me I would see what the cover was like, then I would read the description. But in my home (actual books) library I am always looking for a book to re read and I can never remember the author, but I can remember what the cover looked like. So being able to see the covers using the cover browser would really be nice.

Even thumbnails would be a nice option.
