In Amarok 2.0.0 this will not be possible, but in a future version
there will be full support for custom cover images as well as custom
service icons and emblems. I actually already have a private git
branch with these features, but because of our current feature freeze
before the 2.0.0 it will not be added until at least the next version
( 2.0.1 ). Having just a url to the cover/favicon is not a problem as
the new system fetches covers dynamically as it needs them.
