This would be cool, but I would propose a more ambitious variant.
Integration with the musicbrainz database. The musicbrainz database
already contains lots of information like this. The benefits of
integration with musicbrainz could be vast. Specifically for this
thread e.g. potentially more complete data, whenever one person adds a
relationship it will be usable for all other users, reuse of all the
information in the database.

Just have a look at the artist pages for the artists mentioned above
(click on view all relationships) 

Tom Petty:
http://musicbrainz.org/artist/5ca3f318-d028-4151-ac73-78e2b2d6cdcc.html
Nick Cave:
http://musicbrainz.org/artist/4aae17a7-9f0c-487b-b60e-f8eafb410b1d.html

With the amount of data I can imagine lots of other very nice features
that could follow from musicbrainz integration, but that's probably
ot.

(Don't know if this is feasible technically, licensing-wise etc.)
