Is it possible to changed the default name cover when extracting same ?

I'd like to rename it Art , purely a personal idiosyncratic 🙂

How do you extract the picture?  
The action and also the picture context menu asks you for a format string for the name - where you can enter any string and also scripting functions.

The default name is set in the Options Ctrl-O \> Tag Sources.
