Unless it's in sight, I don't see the advantage. With global keyboard
accelerators it can just be in some other virtual desktop doing its thing
(or minimised). The sound quality is the same. Maybe album management, file
scanning, and recommendation engines are of use here. But no much so... XMMS
doesn't have album covers displayed in its translucent OSD.
