*
decrease/increase volume using the mouse wheel.
*

*
show a simple playlist window upon middle-click, permitting to select a track to play
*
configurable MPD host/port/password.

*
launch configurable client (gmpc, xterm -e ncmpc,..) through right-click menu
*
configurable markup for tooltip and playlist, using a gmpc-like markup :
o
playlist accepts %artist%, %title%, %album% and %track%
o
tooltip accepts the same plus %vol%, %status% and %newline%
