It would certainly be nice to store information calculated
during the playing of a song for further reference.

I can think of at least four other other applications of this
that would be nice (if the player had hooks so we could add
modules in).

You could even have "persistent" volume adjustments made by the user during
the song, so that next time it is played, the volume adjustments are
automatically made at the same times.

However, is it feasible? I thought all partitions were
mounted read only.

How difficult would this sort of thing be?

Also, I seem to recall seeing somewhere that we would be able to
retrieve statistics from the player as to how many times a particular
track had been skipped, and that sort of thing. Is that implemented
yet?
