Bug 260091 must have been already silently resolved, read my point 2, and check it is true for current Ubuntu Amarok package. Furthermore, if Amarok was build without GDKPixBuf (with libgpod-nogtk-dev), you woudn't get cover support even after installing libgpod4.

So, my above reasoning still applies, please file the bug.

For sure! Amarok Handbook (that is shipped with releases) is generated from http://userbase.kde.org/Amarok/Manual and this is a wiki, so after registering you can start improving it right now! Ask on IRC #amarok if you have any doubts, ping Mamarok.

Note however that this bug is distribution-specific, so it deserves a short note at best in the manual.
