I'm pretty sure that's correct. That's why it didn't make much sense to me to insert something as potentially large (and un-simple) as the ebook's EXTH title as the value for that un-required attribute. Just slap "Cover" or "Cover Page" in there and be done.
Just out of curiosity, are you manufacturing the "linear=No" attribute for the created cover page's spine entry? Or is that something that unpacks "as is"?
I prefer the somewhat "standard" svg method of creating a cover page, but that's just a personal preference. Feel free to take a look at my hacked-up mobi_k8resc.py file if you're interested at all. I've added a 'borrowed' method to get the necessary dimensions of jpeg, gif, or png images (and removed the 'linear' attribute for my own selfish reasons). Don't feel any pressure to adopt my changes or anything. I don't mind adjusting the "official" codebase to suit my needs. That's how I get my practice.
Thanks for your input on the project, by the way. Much appreciated!
