libid3tag weighs 147 kB, and libavformat 1422 kB + 7870 kB
(libavcodec) + 271 kB (libavutil) = 9563 kB (values taken from Debian
Jessie / amd64).  That's a factor of 65!

The "ffmpeg" plugin uses the FFmpeg libraries, but if the "ffmpeg"
plugin is not used, none of the FFmpeg libraries are used.

Your kludge works only for users who have FFmpeg.  That makes it
nearly worthless, because it solves the problem only for a fraction of
MPD users, and avoids fixing the real problem.  And it adds a lot of
runtime overhead and code complexity.
