So just to remind of the general status.  Petteri Hintsanen is working on
a TagLib C++ version of the emms-print-metadata.  Also, Taglib was
recently updated to 1.11, which has better support for some tags like
album artist, and AFAIR the C++ interface offers better access to tags.
So that’s a good improvement.

But that wouldn't work since we'd need root privilege to write to
/usr/bin/ and isn’t ELPA friendly.

I think the best way to do this would be to allow it to be compiled during
ELPA installation.  pdf-mode does this, though emms-print-metadata is
probably a whole lot more simple.

Some of the pdf-mode built instructions:
