You can edit the TOC but do some reading first.

That's odd. I never have had to put the cover in the ToC if it wasn't there to get the cover to display. As long as the cover XML is the first itemref in the spine in the OPF, the cover should display when the ePub is first opened.
Here is a sample spine from one of my ePub eBooks.
Code:
<spine toc="ncx">
<itemref idref="cover" linear="no"/>
<itemref idref="html1" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html2" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html4" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html5" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html6" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html7" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html8" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html9" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html10" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html11" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html12" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html13" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html14" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html15" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html16" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html17" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html18" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html19" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html20" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html21" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html22" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html23" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html24" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html25" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html26" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html27" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html28" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html29" linear="yes"/>
<itemref idref="html30" linear="yes"/>
</spine>
