Is there any interest in a new KDE plasma MPD widget?

I’m using a custom eww widget at the moment and was wondering how hard it would be to implement it as a plasma widget (no prior experience). After hacking away for a few hours I have a prove of concept.

Developing that further from a ducttape-“me” product to something fit for the general public would require a lot more investment. So just pondering the notion some data points would be useful:

How many people are actually using MPD for audio playback esp. on plasma?

Roughly in this direction (currently cover image, title information, play/pause by click on cover, volume control by scolling on cover. Depends on local mpc package.):

Even without interest (here) I was still scratching my own itch and the KDE store is convenient for distributing between even your own devices.
