Would it be possible for a plugin to just "scan more and put in the
native db"? I think you did this with FTS. If it's in there, couldn't it
be used for virtual libraries?

It certainly could be done in a plugin. But that plugin would have to implement a lot of what a "core" integration would require, too. Scanner code, database code to store/retrieve the additional information, custom browse modes. It's software, it can be done. But it's a lot of work.

FTS is different, as it's being used for nothing but search. And it's not a pure plugin implementation either. There's a few lines in the core code to hook in to the plugin's code.

Sorry for being persistent, but I think this would be a great
opportunity.

A great opportunity for a plugin or pull request ;-)
