Hi Lucas,

I really like your idea and would be perfect to make that happening! For
that reason I started this topic but my interests were mainly applying such
functionality to Amarok, but it can be a nice interface to implement it on
KDE as a whole!

Currently I am trying DBus interfaces of Amarok, I will be back here again.
