Occasionally the cover on the device is better than the cover in the library.
It would be awesome if I could not just send covers, but retrieve them.

Unfortunately, sometimes I know which books have better covers on device, and sometimes I don't until I see them. Not sure how to fix that, but still, having a cover import feature would be a lot better than munging through the filesystem and doing it manually.
I assume you are talking about purchased books downloaded to the device. There isn't anything at the moment. But, I have recently been thinking about library books downloaded to the Aura ONE. It would be good to have a way to add an empty book to the calibre library to allow tracking these. That's a while off as I haven't looked at it.

But, the other part I might be able to help with. I was fiddling with covers recently and kept wanting to look at what was on the device. I did add something to select a book and open the directory holding the cover. I hadn't thought of a good use for it other than the type of experimenting I was doing. But, this would make grabbing the cover easier.

I'll have to prepare a release. I was fiddling with something and I think it's broken. I'll have to put that back together first.
