If you look at section 17.3.2 of the Kindle Publishing Guidelines, they give some CSS + HTML examples of using display:none + Media Queries.
You would just add a class around your "Cover" text in the TOC, and tell it to not display in KF8/MOBI.
Side Note: I am also in the camp of not having a link to the Cover in the TOC... along with links to other Front Matter (Title Page, Frontispiece, Copyright Page, Dedication, Acknowledgments, [...]). It just makes no sense!
Semi-Related Note: There was another topic about six months ago discussing the "Cover in TOC" (Hitch also answered there):

Semi-Related Note: Here was a topic where we discussed the Front Matter + layout of ebooks:

Definitely try to crack an egg of wisdom on the client's head instead.
