Once BEA handles multiple releases of each album then this will be possible. At the moment, however, the artwork has to belong to the original release for the track listing, year of release, and other data to make sense.

I agree with this completely. Cover art is really important and in a lot of cases the "original" art isnt what is most appealing.

I like this idea, too. Dopesmoker's reissue art is beautiful and, in my opinion, a more iconic cover than its original image. It would be great to see it alongside the original artwork.

I was thinking it would be cool if, for albums with alternate cover art, you could choose which cover you liked more for it's cover in your chart. So, for example, Are You Experienced? by Jimi Hendrix has the UK and US alternate versions, so you could scroll through the art for the one you want to appear in your chart. Not necessarily dire or essential but I think it would be a neat improvement.
