You are right. Moreover, already there is a script for it:
http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php/?content=108967 . With some tweaks
(like a better "settings" display), it would serve our purpose quite well.
So, I added a new part to the Project: Lyric support improvements; that is:
a better display. You can see the idea page for more:
http://community.kde.org/GSoC/2014/Ideas#Amarok . I am researching it at
the moment and doesn't seem like a straight forward job.
