Some other possible projects:

Allow editing song metadata in the information panel in the audiocd
kio slave.  So someone can click on, say, and mp3 song, the metadata
will show up in the information panel, and the user can double-click
(or click a button next to the text) to modify it, either for one song
or all.  If this isn't a big enough project, perhaps also support more
formats, or even use phonon (I am not sure phonon is really suitable),
and/or integrate replaygain support (or some sort of volume
normalization).

Integrate libkcddb and nepomuk-metadata-extractor.  Combine the
features of the two to create a single nepomuk-based CD metadata
handler.  Probably whoever does this should be in tough with the
Amarok and kid3 developers to try to make the system usable by them as
well.
