Has anyone figured out how to modify the bookbag rss feed results to add in the 
cover art for titles into the description data?

We would like to be able to use any old rss plugin to display new titles based 
on a query created bookbag, or the freshmeat feeds, but since the cover art 
isn't included it isn't very attractive.

I'm wondering if this would be where I should look at munging the description 
data -
http://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=Evergreen.git;a=blob;f=Open-ILS/src/perlmods/lib/OpenILS/WWW/SuperCat.pm;hb=HEAD#l1609

I think I need to add a cdata enclosed link to the cover art to have this work.

<![CDATA[<img src=" 
http://egcatalog.larl.org/opac/extras/ac/jacket/small/r/197054"/<http://egcatalog.larl.org/opac/extras/ac/jacket/small/r/197054%22/>>]]>

Maybe something like

$node->description("<![CDATA[<img src=" 
http://egcatalog.larl.org/opac/extras/ac/jacket/small/r/$item_tag"/<http://egcatalog.larl.org/opac/extras/ac/jacket/small/r/$item_tag%22/>>]]>"
 . $node{currentdescription});

I'm not sure how to grab the current description data at that point.  I might 
want to just exclude the current description entirely, since I really just want 
the cover art.  And I need to grab the current server hostname so that isn't 
hard coded.  Any tips would be appreciated.

Thanks
Josh
