One thing related to the behavior that both of us have observed is that more feedback from the last.fm fingerprint plugin would be appreciated.

For instance, if the plugin fails to identify a song, displaying a message that indicates the song couldn't be identified (and why) would be greatly appreciated.

That way, I don't keep clicking "Get information from track fingerprint" over and over again hoping that it will work this time, when the reason it's failing is just that the song isn't in last.fm's database.
