How would you implement that?  Linking against KDE 3 libs is just going to be 
a nasty mess, so I think that only leaves calling the dcop executable.  But 
I'd have thought calling it twice a second would be SLOW.

That said, if you can implement it with reasonable performance (and without 
slowing things down if Amarok 1.x isn't running), then I'll include it in the 
engine.
