For example in Triode's Spotify plugin ? Can a third party plugin just issue a call to "musicartistinfo artistphoto artist:elvis" even if there is no Elvis music in the local library ? What about the url scheme, is there any way to request an artist image using a url based on an artist name (instead of artist id) ?
