     @waweic Oh yes, so much.

     I still haven't quite figured out how to do this on BSD tho. Linux has a function that will just notify you, BSD has something that is similar, but apparently more involved and I'm not yet sure if it can feasibly be used to monitor the whole collection.

     Getting this to work portably might be a hassle, but I absolutely consider this a must-have.

     @phryk Not having to rescan the library every time I add music / change metadata.

     (Although this could probably be solved with a library plug in)

     Serious question for #mpd #musicpd users:

     If MPD was completely re-done, what features would you want?
