Maybe.
Challenge #1 is that selecting a resolution higher than the images resolution will almost certainly result in poorer quality images. For example all my covers are <= 600x600px. If those are resampled up to 800 or 1000 they will have lots of artifacts.
Challenge #2 is that higher resolutions and quality factors generate much larger files. The thumbnail generator will take longer to create the images and they will take longer to load into the Browser. I won't know what the impact on performance will be until I do some testing.
In spite of the challenges I think adding more resolution and quality options is a good idea :-) I'll start with 600 and 800 with a few different quality factors like 85 and 95.
