For what it's worth, slimserver will read a musicbrainz xml
description of the flac file out of an app block. The thing that
isn't available yet is a tool to insert the xml into the flac. But
I'm sure it would be easy to make it read an external version of that
xml as well. And the tools to pull the data from musicbrainz would
lend themselves well to inclusion in an automated system like what you
describe.
