MPD has an infrastructure to write filter plugins, and these can be
configured in mpd.conf.  However, the filter plugins you're thinking
of don't exist in MPD currently.

If I understand you correctly, what you're about to propose is NOT
writing new filter plugins, but provide a protocol interface to
configure/select filter plugins at runtime?

I can't comprehend that proposal.  Your reason for this dynamic filter
interface is that you wish to have those digital filters, but your
proposal will NOT make those filters available in MPD.  All it does is
make existing filters dynamic at runtime.  There is a mismatch between
your proposal and your stated reason.

If you want those filters, write filter plugins.  I understood that
you want those filters, even though I never felt I need them.  That's
ok - write a plugin, send it to me, and I'll merge it.

What you did NOT say is why you want to make them available on the MPD
protocol.  Which, however, is the only thing you were going to
implement.
