Slimserver can already handle coverart embedded in the tags of a FLAC file
(it uses the 'COVERART' tag, which contains a Base64 encoded version of the
image).

My flactag utility for Linux (http://www.gently.org.uk/flactag) will support
this in its next release, due any day now (coverart is retrieved from Amazon
after getting all the tag information from MusicBrainz).
