It's still more efficient to actually store the image, unless we're talking about something so tiny that the overhead of creating a file at all is a significant factor. (In which case, I'll still point to the cover image as the biggest part of almost any ebook and stick to my guns.)

Is the book in question self-published or traditionally published?

I think that's a much smaller population than you think it is. It may seem larger from the inside, but I doubt it's a drop in the bucket as a proportion of Ebook-Reading People.
