Not likely. Kodi already has a file name convention for saving all artwork in the library; I will need a good reason to go against that convention.

At the moment the only artist artwork that can be pulled up from an album or song ListItem is the fanart, and no album artwork is available from a song ListItem if the song has any of its own artwork (like a thumb/cover). Ditto "Player.Art" for now playing music. Dave is working on that, but in the meantime all artist and album artwork is available on MyMusicNav and DialogMusicInfo from the container as "Container.Art(artist.clearlogo)", if it's not a playlist or other mixed list.Yes it's working with 'Container.Art(artist.clearlogo)' but for Player.Art, clearlogo, banner and clearart not working, only cdart.

We do need a replacement for Artwork Downloader, or at the very least a patch for the API keys, and I think Artwork Beef is in better shape. Since I've done very little to pitch my multiple fanart changes to skin designers in the past nearly two years I suppose I can spare the 20 lines of code for an option to save multiple fanart to extrafanart so that they both work.But not working with albums and songs windows, only with artists.
Number two is a bit more control over files. At least an optional recycle bin for deselected/replaced artwork, so that deselected fanart can be removed from the file system. Music library file support will come later as Leia matures, maybe moving around files later still.
Number three: what doesn't work the way you want it to, enough that I should give it a look before submission? Multiple movie thumbnails may come later, but maybe there are still some other bits that annoy other folks.
@Guilouz The plugin uses InfoLabels like skins, so it gets caught with the same thing: only exactly "fanart" is available from those ListItems.
