Cover Art in List View

Is there any way to have a column in list view be "show cover art"? (ie: Icons/thumbnails/images of the cover art of each game?)

I find grid based layouts tedious to navigate for general browsing (my attention is pulled in too many directions at once unless its a set field of static or moderately variable elements I can guess the relative positions of) but I'm also a highly visual creature and need to look over the cover art when choosing what to play.

In all of my other mouse/keyboard media browsing software, I prefer to use a "fat-list" format where all of the content is ordered in a single linear list, but each entry on the list is large enough visually to include an icon, thumbnail, or cover image representing its content. (For example, a vertical list of books where each row starts with an image of the book cover.) Probably the most ubiquitous example is Amazon's marketplace, but you can use a similar layout in everything from Foobar2000 to iTunes to Calibre to Kodi to dbPoweramp. Even Steam's default view and GOG's list view at least include icons. I'd like to browse and launch my games in LaunchBox the same way.
