I don't have any handy, but EasyTag says it will create them and IIRC iTunes
embeds cover art in MP3s using this.

With the possible exception of the "file icon" type, I can't imagine that many
applications pay attention to the type. If we did want the type attached to the
tag, it would probably need to be turned into a string or something, since
other formats may store images with different types.


I'd be happy with just ignoring the picture type, or possibly having an
additional IMAGE_PREVIEW tag for the "file icon" type (which could get used for
other types that store previews too).
