you mean in the menu? would it make any sense to have a 16 pixel cover displayed?

I was thinking to display with you click on the indicator next to the song name and artist. Could fix a 48x48 pix there.

the change will not happen for lucid in any way, the indicator stack probably doesn't allow such layouts in menu right now

Yes, that would require something like custom menu item layouts.

I would like that too. Much

The original taskbar icon showed a ballon with the album art en song progress. The applet menu's already display icons. can't that be used?
