Bug Description

Hey Folks,

it would be super awesome if you could add support for some more media players to the Media Control Applet. I think it is a great applet, but it's a shame that I can't use it with my favorite players, i.e. the incredible Guayadeque music player (the fastest player I've ever seen when it comes to managing big databases) and Clementine, a nice re-write of Amarok 1.4.

Would that be possible?

I too would like to see support for more players, especially Clementine. Could anyone tell me how complicated/advanced/difficult configuring DBus to work with the applet would be? I have no experience with Python or DBus, but I could probably handle adding support for a few more players if the majority of the coding would be more or less following what was done before and changing parameters/settings/etc...
If anyone could give me a little guidance for starting (or learning what I would need to know to start), I can give it a try.
