Given that the feature request is a knee-jerk reaction[1] to one
Rhythmbox maintainer saying he sees the current code base as a dead-end
for a few use cases, I'm pretty happy to say I'd refuse the idea
point-blank.

It also seems the latest stable release crashes when playing videos on
my machine, and spits out loads of uncaught exceptions on startup.

FWIW, I've added my comments to:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Talk:Features/BansheeAsDefaultMediaplayer
and filed the two bugs I found whilst starting up Banshee:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=487117
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=487120

Cheers
