The background:

The Nook has a bug in that prevents it from showing the cover of a book when you're viewing your library on the device. This happens if the entry in the OPF file is of the form:

<opf:meta content="cover-image" name="cover" />

What Nook wants is:

<opf:meta name="cover" content="cover-image" />

My understanding is that Sigil took care of this a few versions back by automatically switching the statement to the Nook-required format.

The problem:

I've just updated Sigil to 0.7.2 and found that it now does just the reverse: if you put the statement in "Nook workaround format", Sigil switches it back to the more standard format. I can't seem to turn this off. I have "Clean Source" disabled under Preferences. Is there something else I need to do that I'm missing?
