There is already a "shortcut", called Action:

> **[Import Cover from File – Mp3tag Documentation](https://docs.mp3tag.de/actions/import-cover/)**
>
> Documentation on the Import Cover action type that can be performed as Quick Action or as reusable workflow from Action Groups. Mp3tag is the universal Tag Editor.

And not to forget:  
You can always drag & drop such a `folder.jpg` artwork to one or multiple selected tracks and save it.

If in `File->Options->Tags->"Don't display first image from the directory as cover art"` is unchecked, MP3Tag will show folder.jpg, if it's the first or only picture file in the album folder.

This looks very similar to this topic:

> [@Auto Import artwork from folder](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/auto-import-artwork-from-folder/56644):
>
> Hello Can you make a check box for import artwork from inside folder mp3 files? Take a look at iamage Thanks []

and that got a solution as far as I can tell.
