Not as good as your cover flow idea, but something that works quite  
well for me (definitely better than the thumbnails for this purpose)  
and might be the closest thing to the cover flow with the current  
features:

go into full page mode with PDF display set to facing pages and  
cropped without showing page breaks (for maximum view). Then if you  
zoom out you can see about 4 pages on one screen and quickly glide  
through a lot of pages by scrolling (which I can do on my macbook air  
with the nice 2 finger gesture).
