Yes.

So I'll wait with all further lib-size testing until Håvard gives us some hard 
numbers. (Especially I'd like to know the size of some other libs to have a 
reference and motivation what to aim for.)

Actually AudioPlayer was called SimplePlayer until 2006-07-06. I renamed it to 
AudioPlayer after a mini-review done by Lars at the Trysil meeting. But I 
agree that prepending simple should help a bit against feature requests. What 
impact will the name change have on code readability and discoverability of 
the class?
