here's something that should go in the wishlist area, but i'll post here since it's kidna on topic.

personaly, I would like to see the player program be more modular, I know they are adding an API for visuals, and other things.. but I would love to have an API for audio functions as well.. more like a winamp/xmms plugin system,
input plugins, output plugins, filters, and things like that

projects I could think of that would want that..

http:// playing of mp3 files.. if you have ethernet, you can play live streams.

http:// output.. (icecast) what would it be like to be on a road trip, with 802.11b in one car with an empeg, and another car with a laptop listening to the same music as car #1.

mic input, speaker output of cell phone, ham radio, inter-car communications via ethernet port.
