This, however, will result in a larger footprint for the album art db
and slower scans for those who embed the exact same album art in each
tag.  (Which many do for compatibility with other devices or just
because they believe all metadata should be in the track, not an
external file.)

Ie, if you have 10 tracks on an album, they will each need to be
resized and cached.

An MD5 or some other hash would have to be used to get back to the
caching-only-the-first and that would add to scanning overhead...
(though probably less than resizing and caching extra images, but
doubling the cost and then declaring a 30% off sale doesn't make for a
cost reduction..)
