And then if I change my mind and want to try the metadata from those sources, now I have to go back and recheck all the fields again. Still not my preferred solution. What davidfor has offered sounds much more useful.
For my curiosity, which sources are you using for covers? From my experience, Kindle hi-res covers, Kobo and Smashwords give the best covers if there is any match. Google Images probably is the most likely to suggest a cover, but, it is also the most likely to return something other than a cover.

And I'm happy that it helps at least one other person.
