So far it's easy, just check it out (the whole noatun subdir is branched) and 
create a patch for noatunarts. So far all I changed there was the namespace 
because namespace Noatun is taken already (it's what is/will be used inside 
libnoatun).

If it's in noatunarts then your normalize effect will only be available if the 
artsplayer plugin is loaded. I don't think I can manage abstracting effects 
from the audio backend as well (stuff like artsd, gstreamer, xine etc. are 
just way too different).
