Then
Tools:Add cover:<select from thumbnail list of images>: OK

This method makes all the OPF entries for a cover and image files.
As well as validating as the totally correct way to add a cover and performing the nuclear option on whatever shouldn't've been there before...

It will not replace the titlepage.xhtml, though. It will replace whatever page is semantically marked as the cover, which may be the same thing.
