This is just one man's opinion, but I never use the document class's features for the front matter. I just use custom environments and ERT (embedded LaTeX) to place all elements of the front matter -- the title, the author, the cover image, the copyright page, the dedication and acknowledgements, the "here's how you use this book", the "about the author", etc. The way I see it, every element of the frontmatter is a one-off thing, and one-off things are ideal for fingerpainting. Once I get into the mainmatter, I'm just the opposite -- no ERT, all environments and character styles, because consistence is the name of the game in the mainmatter.
