That guide forgets that apparently cover-image must also be specified in the metadata.

pandoc doesn't URL-encode spaces, but even after manually working around this, and checking that the outputs are valid using epubcheck, Google Play Books and Calibre-Web both do not see the covers. Apparently Google Play Books can sometimes just take forever to load a cover, but I don't quite believe that as I've never had it take a long time before..
