Comment (by QuLogic):

 Replying to [comment:2 rlaager]:
 > At a minimum, there'd be some Pidgin DBus way to set this info, unless
 (and this would be ideal), we could arrive at some sort of standard for
 music players to export it over DBus.

 There is this MPRIS thing that's being discussed, but I think only BMPx
 has implemented it.

 There's also a mailing list for discussion at [mailto:mpris at videolan.org]
 but I can't seem to find an archive of it.
