Would like to be able to run a query for albums with/without embedded cover art. As it is, I have to import my mp3s back into iTunes, create a smart playlist, and then tag them under 'grouping' as having or not having cover art, re-import my whole library in Beets, and then search in Beets on the Grouping field. Would like to be able to do it without needing iTunes as an intermediary and having to re-import to update.

EDIT: I take it back. Tagging 5000 mp3s as 'No cover art' in iTunes, after subsequent re-import Beets only turns up about 20 files for beets list grouping:'No cover art' or beets list 'grouping:No cover art'. Would be nice if there were a straightforward way to do this.
