Quod Libet uses Python plugins that hook into the same signals it uses internally; it also has a rich FIFO interface for people who prefer echo(1) to more bloated tools.

Rhythmbox can use Bonobo, and in recent versions, D-BUS. It's not as convenient for quick use as QL's FIFO or amaroK's DCOP support, but it does get the job done.

Programmatic access is definitely something all the players are interested in.
