Note that MPD doesn't necessarily run on the same computer or or as the same user as EMMS, so the view and accessibility can differ drastically between client and server.
I think this probably shouldn't be merged; at minimum, you'd want the check conditional on connecting to a local MPD — though this would still break cases where it runs as a different user. For example, Debian defaults to a systemwide mpd, which runs as the mpd user.
