Is there any hope of Nautilus gaining the ability to read Tags? 

Be nice to be able to add tags to files, like a text-document and be able to 
search via tag in the Files & Folders lens. It would also be great to be able 
to view MP3 and MP4 tags from within Nautilus. There's presently no way to view 
mp3 and mp4 tags in a list-like details view. Maybe this could be accomplished 
via plugins or something?
