KDF: I hear you about the dangers of opening the barn door to
specialized tags. ("RATSASS"? You guys don't support the "RATSASS"
tag? What's wrong with you!) So a generic routine for making the
content of unrecognized tags available does seem like a logical way to
go. I had assumed that this tag content would somehow have to end up
in the db, but there are already places in the code where SC grabs
artwork "on the fly"...extracting it from the source, post
scan...aren't there? So perhaps the scanner wouldn't need to have
support for unrecognized tags, just the web UI.
Pippin: Perhaps the server could just dump the tag contents out to a
client-local temp file and then launch a separate instance of the
browser pointed at that file. Costly (in terms of CPU cycles) and
slow, but that would protect both the main instance of the UI and the
server, wouldn't it? On the other hand, probably too costly on an
iPhone or a 770 or N800.
