Ok, looking closer, there is a COVER PAGE and COVER IMAGE.

Apparently kepubs require the cover page.

I didn't realize that epubs could have both and just never looked for a cover image when I saw a cover page, but that makes a lot of sense.

So what I'm looking for is a search in quality check for epubs without a COVER PAGE, where the current search ("cover") presumably checks for epubs without both the cover page and cover image. I assume that if it has a cover page, it also has a cover image.

Epubs without cover pages seem to generate kepubs without cover pages, which do not work properly (unless there is exactly one html/xhtml file).
