You cancel the Cover 'semantics' after making the fake cover page. NB In set semantics: Clicking on a one with a setting, toggles. Setting the current FILE to a semantic in use elsewhere will steal the focus.
Note: if you DON'T remove the setting on the HTML file, Sigil will replace the 'existing' cover with the new one.

You can then drag the 'faked' cover to the ultimate location (order).

If you want the SVG in the middle:
Split at the destination, then drag the faked (canceled) cover in between

Picture

Then simply MERGE the 3 pieces
