When looking for cover art in the album folder, Banshee only looks for
files named as "cover", "folder" or "front" (not case sensitive).
A quick look at the Rhythmbox code shows that it's looking for "cover",
"album", "albumart", ".folder" and "folder"
http://git.gnome.org/cgit/rhythmbox/tree/plugins/artdisplay/artdisplay/LocalCoverArtSearch.py

We should probably add "album" and "albumart" to our list.

Could you file a bug about that, if there isn't any already, so that it
doesn't get forgotten ?
