There is no tweak currently. But a tweak to configure what drag-and-drop files count as covers would probably be good to have even without this change.
Assuming there will be no tweak :
  • what will happen to the 4.5K TIFFs I already have in _Main (they are large multi-page tiffs), will they get converted to cover.jpg and what will happen to the existing cover.jpgs.
  • anyone know of an alternative for TIFF as convenient format for storing hi-res images in a multi-page container - ebook formats are not an option.
Added : And, I was rather enamoured with my idea of using multi-page TIFFs to overcome the annoyance of having image links in custom comments flashing up as booklist tooltips
