Will Amarok ever support covers from id3 tag?

There have been two separate questions on this thread and need to be
answered separately.

Q1) Why isn't Amarok picking up covers in the form of cover.jpg in my
album folders after a restart?

A1) Because it picks them up during scan, not during playback. Do a full
rescan of your collection and they should all be picked up.

Q2) Why isn't Amarok using embedded cover art? (It seems like such a
basic thing to have.)

A2) Because nobody has written the support for it. (Then you write the
patch for it.)
