@icq70610 - the consensus seems to be that adding this feature to the standard issue Modify plugin is not a good idea.

If Kovid doesn't want to add the functionality to Send to Device (and Save to Disk), then you could create a private version of the plugin, as a number of other folks have done.

The plugin already has the code to remove and inject cover images, so what's needed is 'a way' to create a greyscale image from the book's cover.jpg and inject that into the epub. There's a good chance that 'the way' is available from the calibre core.

I'm sure the likes of Rev. Bob and Kovid will gladly offer their guidance.
