Funny! I'm thinking of implementing a search feature using tracker (btw: tracker has a DBUS interface, so there no comandline stuff or so). Actually for me the thing is the following:
I plan to use tracker as a desktop search anyway. So why also use a memory-hungry app to manage my music? I looked for a simple player written in python and found DAP. For me, it looks perfectly to implement a plugin that uses tracker as library backend, as tracker has a lightning fast search engine (I need a very fast engine because I have a very large collection).
All this does not speak against a simple search like Jendrik proposed. It would be just one further option for those with really huge libraries (like the library plugin is).
@Francois: Did you yet make any steps towards implementing a tracker search?
