I don't think we will have a general way to do that.
If you want to change the code (after each nightly) edit frontend/ui/screensaver.lua and change this function:

function Screensaver:getCoverImage(file)
    local ImageWidget = require("ui/widget/imagewidget")
    local doc = DocumentRegistry:openDocument(file)
    if doc and (string.lower(string.match(file, ".+%.([^.]+)") or "")=="epub") then
        local image = doc:getCoverPageImage()
        doc:close()
        local extension =  or "")
        if image then
            return ImageWidget:new{
                image = image,
                width = Screen:getWidth(),
                height = Screen:getHeight(),
            }
        end
    end
end

Havn't tested it, but it should make sure that your epubs show their covers and all other files your defualt cover. You could change it also to ~="pdf" instead of =="epub"...
