Since I read somewhere on these threads that firmware 2.0.0 can recreate needed cover images on the fly, would it be a good thing to do to just delete all the image files and let the KT recreate them for just the books that are present, or is that not the way to resolve the question?
What's the best thing to do as an ongoing way to manage these image files?

NO the Kobo .17 firmware and previous ones to that do not remove the images when you delete a book. I believe it only removes the book entry from it's database.
Here is some info on it:

I have seen mentioned that the new 2.0 firmware does create it's images on the fly. I hope that's true.
